I just want teams from the Southeast!!!

Mizzou, Ark, Texas and TAM are not Southeast.

Replace them with Tulane, Ga Tech, FSU, Clemson, North Carolina, NC State.
The state of North Carolina is now in the Southeast? I'll have to call my friends in Charlotte and break the news to them...gently.

They teach geography at aggy between meat gazing? He said "southeast" and nothing about former Confederacy or the general political "South".

He doesn't want Texas, aggy, pig or Mizzery in the SEC because we aren't "Southeast", yet North Carolina is somehow?

Tulane?




Come on, man. Get real.

There are far better choices out there.

Tulane massively screwed up years ago when they withdrew from the SEC, but that is their problem.

No matter how many years of realignment talk we have, this board is STILL overrun with morons who will not understand what expansion is based upon. You have to add teams that grow the payouts to the existing members.
No one here gets a vote. What are you credentials? You answer to Sankey or Sankey answer to you?

This would have to be a law specifically for FSU to join. I just don’t see Miami being invited.

UNC? Clemson?

“Per the amendment, obtained by @YahooSports, if a power league school wants to move to another power conference, the school can avoid the 5-year probationary period if it withdraws from its league within 180 days of the bill’s enactment.”


I don't understand how this would help though - ACC members missed their deadline to leave this year. It would be more than 180 days from enactment before they could depart. The language may specify 180 days to announce intent to depart from their current conference. As quoted though, doesn't seem to change anything. Which would completely make sense that even the amendment bungles the issue.

North Carolina, Virginia schools don’t add any passionate fan bases.


These are the two schools we should go after. North Carolina is a huge brand, a great school, and immediately elevates basketball.

Virginia has a very good baseball and basketball program, is a great school, and a powerful alumni base.

Both move us into the East Coast media market towards DC and have alumni all over the Northeast.

The blue bloods in this conference like the idea of expansion, but they arent ready to lose their traditional rivalry games..

It was more appealing before the 19 team cap. If you went to 20 you could put ou tex atm mizzou and arky in a division, put South Carolina with the four best acc teams. And split the og sec back into east and west. I don’t think there is much benefit for sec expansion with the a 19 team cap. Without a threat of big ten invasion in the south I think the panic of being left behind by big ten is gone.

19 is such a strange number. 20 you can make 4 divisions of 5, 18 is also weird. Stay at 16.

If they allowed 20 and you have to go, you pretty easily go 4 divisions of 5, play your division and all over another. Play at everyone’s place every 6th year. I put them from highest to lowest rank in each division:

East:
Clemson
FL
FSU
SC
UNC

Gulf:
Bama
LSU
Ole Miss
Auburn
State

West:
Texas
OU
A&M
Mizzou
Arkansas

Central:
Georgia
Tennessee
Georgia Tech
Vandy
Kentucky

If you have to go to 20, this is the ticket.

Per Ross Dellengher, p4 conferences would have 180 days to add teams or the five year rule would take effect.

Seems no brainer the SEC will be adding 3 teams as soon as bill is signed.

With Big 10 only having one slot, and SEC 3, the SEC is Big Cat daddy.

Let the bidding war begin!

Who will win a bidding war to join the SEC? Clemson, N Carolina, FSU, Texas Tech, SMU, Miami , ND? The buyin money should be split 17 ways.

I say let the bidding begin at $100,000,000
