Why Would the SEC or B1G Want Miami?

I certainly get the attraction to Notre Dame and maybe UNC, and Clemson presently in football, but don't really understand why Miami keeps getting mentioned. Other than winning titles 20 Years ago they haven't been reliant in football and they don't ever fill their stadium with fans. Miami, the city presents far better entertainment options and people go to them instead of seeing the Canes. The truth is we have a much better fan base than they do. BTW, can't wait to see the empty LA Coliseum when Rutger s comes to town.

Is VT still a draw is the question

IMO, VT isn’t much of a draw these days. I do think there are times

South Florida market? I mean I’d rather have Miami than Rutgers/Maryland

sorry to disagree but both MD and Rutgers are in premium markets with lots

Don't they already own the south FL market?
