This is great, hopefully pisses off the cocks enough for a vote our way.

No man. I'm repeating myself here, but

They're going to keep on expanding until they become so large we're going to have to divide ourselves up by regions, SEC, ACC, SWC, and so on.

would absolutely love fsu and clemson joining. would serve the other school right for being in favor of this madness, however it will never happen

They stabbed the AGS might as hit the Gators and Gamecocks also.

Sorry USC, UGA and UF

voting for more money was fun when it wasn't you getting effed wasn't it?

I'm all in on voting in Clemson, GT, FSU, VT and Louisville

If we're just doing this for the money let's do it for ALL the money

Divisions maybe. We are rushing towards breaking from the ncaa

The SEC will never lose a championship again, because nearly every team that goes to it will be in the SEC. Great strategy to monopolize college football championships.

The goal is clearly to sneak **** ou and tu in to the conference.

Then all of a sudden you have 2 more votes to add these other teams, and it won't matter if we join with SC and Florida and Missouri anymore. They'll all be outvoted. Snakey Texas modus operandi.

Surely this is what we are telling schools now. Snakey cannot be trusted.

If true, classical negotiation tactic. I would assume it went something like this:

SEC: hey A&M, we are thinking of expanding! What do you think about OSU, MU, FlaSt, and Clemson?
A&M: sounds good to us. Not tu though, right?
SEC: no way man, not tu. But hey, dont tell Florida or USC.

And the same was said to Florida and USC, and thats how "Saying A&M was kept in the dark on this is 100% false"

this is what they want. For sure.

And they aren't wrong.

Honestly we should support full expansion to 20 and add fsu/clemson/unc/uva or maybe ga tech. The money would be great.

Saw another post yesterday around blowing this thing up by letting Arkansas State, Louisville, Clemson, and FSU in. Basically giving some other members a taste of what we're getting.

I'm all for that.

Id be talking about bringing in Florida State, Miami, Clemson and maybe Memphis or UNC. Put on some heat.

If the SEC did this, it would force the remaining B1G, PAC, and ACC elite to merge into one other 20-team Superconference. The top 40 money programs could basically have their own national championship and 41-whatever would be shut out-of it like Div 3 is now.

This is becoming a total ****show

Just start a minor league for football already

And make things completely uninteresting.

Too much money for the big schools to share with the mid tier. They will separate.

This the only reason you go to super conferences is to bypass the ncaa. I'm not keen at all on ut and ou in the sec but if it is part of a bigger plan to create a 24 team super conference sans the ncaa with the best from Texas to the Atlantic, I can get on board with that.

I think we are about to find out how enforceable these GOR agreements are soon. ACC has a particularly strong and nasty one. They also have proven themselves to be very litigious when their conference is being poached.

They didn't let Maryland go without a fight. The B1G ended up paying the exit fee but that happened before the GOR. So that issue was not addressed.

Doubtful. No way member schools weren't informed. Only issue is the leadership of certain schools not passing along that info.

If espn wants a super conference with the best of the acc and big12, along with sec, they can make it go away. They own the acc like they own the sec. And I could totally see espn wanting a college football (and sports) super league with the best of what they currently have in the big12, acc, and sec without the ncaa involved.

We maybe seeing the first domino falling in that plan. Maybe that is what Sankey is shooting for not to head a SEC with ou/tu added but a true super league from Texas to the Atlantic.

If true you really can't think in terms of "conferences" Any more . You would essentially be NFL light. Might even have a college version of and NFC and AFC where you have 2 playoffs going simultaneously and have the winners play for the National Championship.lots of $$$ in that scenario

Nobody wants to watch GA tech vs Louisville. ACC is on notice.

From the ACC, which schools would be "the best"? Clemson, FSU, North Carolina? Miami? Notre Dame, of course.

What would the other schools do? Sit back and get left out? I don't see that happening when they have legal options.

In that case I want OU/tu in the Aggie pod. That makes regional sense, and I would enjoy BTHO Bevo every year.

I don't know about Ohio State and Michigan. The Big 10 has a huge research consortium (along with U of Chicago) that is pretty important to them. They also only add schools that are AAU, though Nebraska lost their status right after joining.

Grab ND, Clemson, Miami, and unc/fsu and adding Texas will burn less

B10 and SEC would pick apart the PAC and ACC . B10 could potential control the NY, Chicago and LA tv markets which might be worth more than the SEC In all honesty

I'd say no nd but I think the rest plus a virginia school would pretty good.

The b10 teams make 55 mill while those in the sec make 45. The b10 brings in viewers.
