All that money and you still won't be able to compete with the SEC on a football field

We'll see about that one.

BTW, there's only one team I care about in that regard and I think they're well on their way.

One of the biggest disadvantages of the Big Ten versus the SEC is that the athletic departments have so many more sports to support. For example, Ohio State has more than twice as many sports as LSU. Because of this, SEC schools don't have to spread their resources as thin as Big Ten schools, and can dominate, or at least be very competitive in the minor sports they do have (eg. track, baseball, softball, swimming, women's basketball, gymnastics, etc.).
