There is no guarantee...

but if you are talking about markets, academics etc... Maryland is higher than either of the other 2 teams. Thats why you, me or any other Gamecock fans are not going to be a part of any of the business decisions for the SEC or Big 12. Our personal feelings about teams just won't be considered. I know you don't like FSU, North Carolina or Notre Dame. But would you believe all of those teams add 10 times more than either of the 2 teams you mentioned? I would say Maryland and NC State are pretty close, but when you figure how many people and that they will carry the whole state and academics, from a business stand point Maryland is a no brainer.

If you are just going to go from a football and number of fans stand point and throw everything else out the window, academics etc... FSU is a no brainer and Miami is not too far behind them. But I don't think Slive is going to go that route. One thing for sure, all the silliness you see about we would block FSU or we would block this, that and the other is not even remotely accurate. There are definitely enough fans, recruits etc... to carry 2 teams from the state of Florida. The fact that some of these fans are wanting to add teams they know they can beat is not going to be considered. Slive knows that if he were to go the football only route, its FSU from the ACC. Then you and quite a few other teams are in trouble because FSU would be right up there just below Bama with LSU sooner rather than later. But I don't think that is whats going to happen.
