We would be like Missouri I believe.
Missouri is now able to keep a lot of the St. Louis talent in state. I think VT could do the same in the SEC with the VA, DC, and MD talent. So it would help with recruiting. It would be an upgrade in talent but not so sure about an upgrade for our record.

6-6 in the SEC equates to 7-5 in the B1X and probably 8-4 in the ACC.
