I think long term......

the culture/fit is extremely important. Aside from Vandy, the SEC, including new additions, seems to be a pretty tight and good fit. The B1G not nearly as much, IMO.

Every one wanted to duplicate the Big 10 network, but
Big12 guy • 10/04/24 10:20 AM ET
Yeah, I think that's pretty much it. They have fans and alumni everywhere.
reestuart • 10/04/24 11:12 AM ET
I think the SEC has bigger visions than the south east
HokieAl • 10/03/24 04:05 PM ET
The essential acquisitions for The SEC are UNC and Virginia.

The SEC does not have to play defense with the Big 10. **
Big12 guy • 10/03/24 03:41 PM ET
Interesting that he was bragging about non-football championships.
manassashoo • 10/03/24 01:55 PM ET
So from that post, do you want the Hoos in the SEC?**
Stech • 10/03/24 05:34 PM ET
My favorite sport is baseball, for that reason yes.**
manassashoo • 10/03/24 08:45 PM ET
Okay, I get that.**
Stech • 10/03/24 09:49 PM ET
I think his point was that the SEC is not just the dominant football

He's just being a politician. They already know their targets

Sure Sankey. Sankey will take Hawaii if they add an extra $1.**

I think the MAC should take Hawaii. They certainly could use that as

Fit Culture? Former Southern Conference mates for that bill.
Sunsetunderground • 10/03/24 12:18 PM ET
Southern Conference name fits better if that happens w/ Tex schools, maybe
Stech • 10/03/24 12:38 PM ET
That's odd, the talking heads have been saying fit doesn't matter at all**
HokieNoVA • 10/03/24 11:06 AM ET
I never bought that culture doesn't matter, no matter who said it.
