secfan123, there is NO way TAMU attracts 10% of the Texas market. they dont attract any major markets. Outside of their alumni, they dont have a large fan base. Matter of fact, they make fun of T-shirt fans, which is what we are talking about. They have a niche market in Texas and that is about it.

"NU doesn't bring anything to the table except for prestige."
BobAg, What does TAMU bring? they dont commmand ANY markets in Texas. Last year was a good year for A&M and they still barely covered expenses, had a hard time selling out their stadium, and were behind Missu, Arkansas, and LSU in merchandise sold. Arkansas and LSU have a better presence in east Texas than A&M does.

LSUtah, the PAC12 negotiated their contract because the expansion coincided with the end of their current contract. The Big10 did not renegotiate their contract by adding Nebraska and a conference championship game. There is no guarantee that CBS or ESPN are looking to open up the bidding again. Matter of fact, it works against their interest to do so.

Barry, how do you know that Texas U isnt hoping that TAMU leaves? Reading some of their boards, the consensus seems to be that Texas wants to be separated from TAMU almost as much.

really? wow... supposedly it will take a few years for NU and CU to become full members due to membership fee hit. Strange that SEC wouldnt do something similar

I am new here and I apologize if this is posted elsewhere but does anyone know if there are any SEC entrance fees to join the conference?
