These are state universities. And even the private schools get a ton of aid

research grants. It is also impacting a lot of lives and livelihoods of people and towns. If they tell the Citadel they have to admit Shannon Faulkner, why wouldn't they inject themselves into something much wider? These state universities have been built on federal and state money for over a century. And while I know athletic budgets are separate, they didn't get here on their own. VT and Baylor have been helped on the athletic side by their state governments, I'm surprised so few others have.

You would be correct. I live in Georgia and only know one GT fan

The real question is how bad the SEC wants to keep the B1G out of the South**

It may not matter if the Big Ten and SEC decide they are going to do their
