What are they expecting other than an even bigger middle finger from the ''Tobacco Road'' crowd.
Why do they want to leave the powder puff conference where anybody can win 9-11 games a year playing high school teams??
I've seen the same reports and feel the BIG12 is their best option.
I've seen these reports. They come off as plausible. They are also completely without authoritative accreditation or confirmation - even validation. I'm holding my water.
It’s funny you think the schools dictate this. The one who dishes out the money makes the calls. That goes for the big10 to. I don’t care if they have the BTaA. You don’t tell the grantor of a billion dollar contract to go f themselves.
Not for long.
It’s not proven that they will only take AAU schools. The president of the conference has stated multiple times this is not necessarily true. Truth is NO ONE has a clue what will happen. Neither of the big 2 are going to get themselves into a law suit by colluding with schools currently under contract. The OFFER to join always comes after the announcement to leave the conference. All you have to do is look at the past 10 years.
You have no idea of the politics and the support that member schools of the SEC have for each other. Let me be clear USC hasn't taken anything from Clemson. They can stand on their own. Recently through several media sources it has also been reported that the BIG10 and the SEC are not interested in FSU and Clemson. I know you are a disppointed Clemson fan. Suck it up and you will see both FSU and CU joining the BIG12.
Are those buttons intended to be red and blue, hard to tell from the picture?
They won’t leave the ACC for the big 12 that is simply the big 12 blowing smoke. Clemson may very well not get in the SEC ( hope they don’t), but I can promise you it won’t be because a “no” vote came from USC. There is too much money at stake for the state for that to happen. Best we can hope for is they stay in the acc or go to the big 10. Although I don’t know if the later is really a good thing considering they would have slightly more money. Not to mention, they would have a better philosophy on tv contracts. What I mean by that is FOX is still mainly over the air programming. I’m not sure how espn subscription only is going to work out in the future.
If the SEC let Texas in over any objections from A&M, you can be darn sure they'd give as little consideration to our objections to Clemson joining.
True, but the main idea is to expand your media footprint (UT/OU), I don't see how adding another SC and Fla. school has any affect on expanding your footprint. Now a North Carolina and/or Virginia school, that's a different animal.
That’s arguable. Some would argue it’s about matchups people want to see. What brings more views usc vs GA or Clemson vs Georgia? Not only that sometimes you do things you don’t want to keep your competitors hands out of the cookie jar.
Well, you're getting ready to see and also what it's like to be 0-1! What's the current spread?
Couldn’t tell you don’t keep up with there spreads. If it’s not Georgia by 20 or so I’ll be shocked. It would have to be Georgia by 24+ before I would consider taking Clemson.

Greg Sankey has put this issue to rest.SEC commish Greg Sankey dismisses questions about potential expansion
The SEC kicked off the latest realignment wave when it took Oklahoma and Texas from the Big 12 three years ago.
Look everyone knows you are a Clemson fan begging to get in the SEC. Lurker123 as sure as the sun comes out every day and the moon at night I promise you CU and FSU will never be admitted to the SEC. Like death and taxes this is something that I am sure of. The Big12 is your next landing spot.
One of the most regretted words spoken in the english language. (regardless of topic)
You are correct. The dunderheads on here think it's all about football. The B1G wants UNC and UVa. The B1G and SEC do not want CU and FSU.
The SEC won't want Clemson or FSU. Until they do.
