Clemson is already out according to the media pundits. A&M would
open up a media market and a very rich recruiting bed. Similarly VT.

Subject: Re: [gatortalk] SEC adds Texas and some others
Why do we want Texas A&M, other than getting exposure in Texas? Is
that sufficient? (Maybe the conference just wants all the teams
where Bear Bryant was a HC).
Really, I wonder what the formula for deciding whether a team can
(at least) pull its own weight in the conference, financially.
How much more is the conference's television contract worth with UF
than without? It's speculative, but I assume the conference execs
are doing a similar exercise with all the potential adds.
Interesting that back in the early '90s, the conference first wanted
F$U and scUM, not Arkansas or USC. It turned out better this way for
the conference, I think. It was the schools' lucky day when USC and
Arkansas got invited to join. It was the conference's lucky day when
F$U and scUM said no.
If we add Texas A&M, and feel the need to add a team from the
eastern side of the country, I think Clemson would be the best fit,
among those being mentioned. Maybe because (I think) they actually
sell out their stadium, and seem to be as football-crazy as the rest
of the conference. Of course, if it's all about adding media
markets, the it will probably be VT.
Go Gators!!!!
