I was curious as to why people only think about football when talking conference

expansion. Then I remembered because of money. It sucks that college athletics have come to this. Myself, being a baseball favorite sport person, would like to see the SEC invite a dominate college baseball team. It could be a school that has a decent football program as well. Miami comes to mind.

Florida state fits this bill perfect. Good football and baseball programs.

I do not follow this as close as most but didn't the AD for them say they are going no where?

You do know that A&M made the CWS last year and ended up 6th, right?

Miami isnt going anywhere either....

What the frick does this have to do with A&M? I am so tired of A&M fans making everything about them. You do know we are going to add more teams dumb shite.

Personally, college baseball is my favorite sport, but football pays the bills.

Mizzou had an interesting baseball season last year. Apparently they were having a lot of issues early in the season off the field, really got it cleaned up but could only finish with an 8th seed in the Big 12 tourney,but they made it all the way to the finals and forced an extra inning game against A&M. They have the potential to be very good.

Football pays for everything else. That's why it's the 800 pound gorilla, unless you're talking about a Duke or UNC.

well the ACC move looked like it was basketball driven. For the most part it is driven by football though everywhere else.

Don't forget about Kansas. They gave away tickets to last night's OU game and still had almost 8,000 empty seats.

That's just sad.

At Kentucky basketball pays for basketball. Football pays for everything else which is why Kentucky will never get serious about football until revenue drops so low that basketball loses money which will never happen.

Compare football to basketball revenues at UK.
