With the Miami story dropping..

I just found out that VT and A&M have something in common that would give them a common bond within the conference. They are the only two major universities that are also Senior Military Colleges in the US. I knew of A&M's Core tradition, but I didn't know about VT.

frick Texas. Ou/Mizzou and A&M to the west. VT/Clemson and FSU to the east

There are to many Tigers in this conference already so IMO, Mizzou and Clemson are O. U. T. OUT!

I'm all for aTm, one of the OK schools, VT, NCState and even FSU. It just seems to me that if you want more TV market UF already gives us Florida. We are not in NC, and its right on our doorstep, as is OK. VT is just a little farther away.


ETA: almost for got this

Without bending the rules, I see no way they can get the top athletes from south Florida to come to a small private expensive university that requires high scores to even be accepted.

They also house each state's respective veterinary schools (VT's is actually a joint program with Maryland).

---

I think we have alot of vet schools. LSU, MSU, AU, FL, GA, and TN

Tis true..

how is that different than Notre Dame, except switching South Beach vs. South Bend?

Oklahoma has a problem. They have a conjoined twin that no one wants.

FIFY

Okie Lite is worth it if Oklahoma comes as part of the package.

Not that I want to expand but if we do, that pair of schools is a good catch.
