@JakeCrain_ No. But I’m not a fan of the SEC in any way, shape or form, either.
Actually, there is a part of me that hopes they DO break away … and the whole enterprise collapses into itself.
It couldn’t happen to bigger group of nitwits.
@RiseNDraft All very plausible. But there is almost always a non-5 star that surpasses expectations every year (ie Anthonie Knapp in ‘24) and makes an immediate splash.
I have no idea who that might be in ‘26, but I’ll bet a lower ranked recruit will get on the field before a 5-star.
@CFBGuy999 I would prefer not to. As much as I would be highly uneasy about the decision, I do think it makes a lot of sense for geographic reasons. I’m sure I could get used to it if the rules of the game change so dramatically that an independent has no path to a title.
@TomFornelli Because in Sankey’s wet dream the CFP will be the SEC Invitational featuring 10 SEC schools and 2 FCS wildcards.
It’s the only way the SEC can win nattys again.
Expansion means they would actually have to beat a P4 opponent in the postseason.
@SportsCenter@CFBHeather I’m sure the talks are “real.” But the chances of it happening are very slim. There are far-reaching implications to that move.
It would very likely fracture permanently what little harmony exists in a sport seemingly hellbent on destroying itself from within.
@eyyankees I’m ok if it is.
He did some nice things. I’ve never seen a guy hit a baseball harder than him.
But he just cannot stay healthy. We do not need a $30 million china doll on the roster anymore.
@Brianman3000@StJamesStJames@PatMcAfeeShow@PeteThamel “Most valuable” has nothing whatsoever to do with winning and losing. It is a meaningless valuation as no college football program is being sold to private entities (yet).
Now everyone pays players, which took away the only advantage the SEC had in fueling their “dominance.”
@PatMcAfeeShow@PeteThamel And everyone possessing functioning neurons knows exactly why: once they were not the only ones paying players it was amazing how quickly the gap closed.
It’s now the most overrated conference by far.
At this point their purported strength is nothing more than pure mythology.
@PeteSampson_ I have a ton of confidence in how good this team will be.
I have zero confidence that “the system” (I.e. the Conference Mafia) will ever give them a shot at a title. They’ll rig it to leave us out.
@Binder2019@DallasTTU@BobbyCa64441042@RossDellenger It’s a lot more complex than your linear construction suggests.
It’s also not worth arguing over bc it’s nothing more than a leverage play anyway.
It’s a great flex on the SEC’s part. But when they really think it through they’ll see the fault lines.
