By the way I wouldn't bring up

Academics when trying to give reason for SEC to take a school. As you've stated many times the sec doesn't care about academics. They care about sports, football in particular. I also see no reason that Maryland has a better tv market than VT and NC ST. What exactly are you basing that off of?

Maryland is a joke bro. Not saying its impossible that they join the SEC but I will say that Rice probably has a better shot at joining lol. VT does not suck at football and has not for many years like Maryland has. They have easily been better than fsu after they started playing in the same conference that fsu gained their glory status from. And as far as NC ST they have sucked recently but not more than Maryland. Can't really argue which teams are better if we're talking football and tv markets and that's what the sec is all about, simple as that.

If you're talking about the sec bringing in teams that they can beat, well vt and nc st are no brainers. Vt brings football relevance and so does nc st to some point. Maryland brings.. well.. absolutely nothing. And yea fsu does scare teams in the sec particularly Florida because I do think that joining the sec boosts your schools recruiting. That's something you have flat out disagreed with vt and nc st. Doesn't make sense to me?
