Maybe Just Coaching

Oklahoma State has been good in football just during the long head coaching career of Mike Gundy. The Hogs beat Okie State like drum during the 1960's & 1970's, hard to even sit in the football stadium and respect them as a Big Eight team during those games. Worse with TCU, they were pitiful, not even getting 15,000 seat crowds before Gary Patterson arrived. Patterson finally left TCU last year. The TCU future is now questionable? Alabama has been great with Saban and South Carolina regularly beat Clemson until Dabo Swinney showed up. The same with FSU after Bobby Bowden retired. Some success with Jimbo Fisher but the pits since.

SEC. Are they interested in any Pac-12 properties? Is this an arms race?
Maroon Baboon • 07/29/22 06:04 PM ET
It’d go against what has worked for them in the past, Matchup/Rival
Stech • 07/29/22 08:00 PM ET
The Big Ten is not even 10 schools
WarHog38 • 07/29/22 06:58 PM ET
And this has what to do with selling advertisements for college football?**
DarylS • 07/30/22 09:33 AM ET
Not in the advertising business
WarHog38 • 07/30/22 11:33 AM ET
LOL. What the hell is this post about. GTFO with this. **
reestuart • 07/30/22 02:25 AM ET
It is history.
WarHog38 • 07/30/22 11:18 AM ET
Your post is actually interesting. Thanks for the brief break
GoJosieBen • 07/30/22 07:06 PM ET
Thanks, I fully agree with you
WarHog38 • 07/30/22 09:38 PM ET
Tucson and Tempe are both in Southern Arizona, claimed by the CSA.
Maroon Baboon • 07/29/22 07:33 PM ET
West Texas
WarHog38 • 07/29/22 08:15 PM ET
THe Big 10 has a history with USE/UCLA and Pac10
LocalExperts • 07/30/22 08:55 AM ET
They would be crazy to spread themselves thin out west.
BBBDatVT • 07/29/22 06:12 PM ET
The SEC isn't desperate like the B1G.
Old Line Hokie • 07/29/22 07:05 PM ET
Desperate's a strong word…
mancunian • 07/30/22 06:25 PM ET
LOL. What makes you think they are desperate ???**
reestuart • 07/30/22 02:22 AM ET
Adding 2 schools 2000 miles away...
Old Line Hokie • 07/30/22 09:43 AM ET
Missouri wasn't such a great add for the SEC.**
tarheelblue • 07/30/22 12:48 PM ET
Not great, but it's the state's top brand.
Old Line Hokie • 07/30/22 05:49 PM ET
Rutgers and Maryland are also the top brands in their respective states.
tarheelblue • 07/30/22 11:01 PM ET
The Big 10 will always have huge alumni numbers
VaTechHokiesACC • 07/29/22 11:54 PM ET
The SEC's alumni population will increase more than the BIG's this century.
Old Line Hokie • 07/30/22 09:57 AM ET
You are Right
WarHog38 • 07/30/22 11:52 AM ET
You are spot on the South continues to grow, and the SEC prefers the rabid
Stech • 07/29/22 11:02 PM ET
If it were up to The SEC they would have added UNC and Uva long ago.
33laszlo99 • 07/29/22 07:45 PM ET
Neither fits the "rabid fanbase" model the SEC is looking for...
EDGEMAN • 07/30/22 07:17 AM ET
SEC in every case has gone after Football First schools, I buy they want
Stech • 07/29/22 08:08 PM ET
If the SEC wants an NC school, who else is there really besides UNC?
tarheelblue • 07/29/22 08:39 PM ET
NC St has beaten Carolina 4 of the last 6 games, I’ve seen Tech at both
Stech • 07/29/22 10:53 PM ET
The SEC would want the better brand. UNC crushes NCS, and it’s not close.**
Hokie Baseball • 07/30/22 12:02 AM ET
nC State, most of their fans are in Raleigh. UNC in bigger statewide**
LocalExperts • 07/30/22 12:22 PM ET
And a much bigger brand nationally. **
tarheelblue • 07/30/22 12:45 PM ET
UNC and ND are the only brands that really matter in expansionpalooza
Maroon Baboon • 07/30/22 12:52 PM ET
The SEC has always gone for the football brand and not other sports. UNC is
Stech • 07/30/22 09:35 AM ET
They didn't take Bedlam though. OkSt is a good football school.**
Maroon Baboon • 07/30/22 11:56 AM ET
Maybe Just Coaching ◄
WarHog38 • 07/30/22 01:36 PM ET
I'd take Oklahoma State over Mizzou any day.
Maroon Baboon • 07/30/22 02:36 PM ET
Eye of the Beholder
WarHog38 • 07/30/22 04:11 PM ET
Do you really consider NC State to be a "football brand"?
tarheelblue • 07/30/22 11:46 AM ET
Valvano State U to non-alums**
Ho_Ki • 07/30/22 12:42 PM ET
They are certainly corrupt enough
