I've been reading a little on the FSU rivals board and their fans are pretty upset with the additions of Pitt and Syracuse
lol only a backwoods internet dumbass would be upset at adding a new york and pittsburg tv market to your conference.

I guess they're more upset at being stuck with who they're stuck with instead of in the SEC. And adding the Boston market (lol) didn't help them much.

Definitely a basketball move. Syracuse seems to have given up on moving forward with it's football program. It's pretty much dead right now.

For one step off your high horse. You can say all day long it won't happen, but you have nothing but conjecture. Just like the FSU to SEC crowd has nothing but conjecture as well.
Why do you think adding Pitt and Syracuse does anything for TV markets? How big are these schools football fan bases? Do you have TV ratings to show that these schools bring viewers? Just because you have a market in NY or Pittsburgh doesn't mean that market has viewers or subscribers. You need someone to buy what you're selling for it to have value. I'm not making the claim that these are bad football markets. I'm just saying you're making an assumption based on no evidence.
This is the same thing you did on your FSU will never be in the SEC statement. You have no proof that UF will block FSU. You have no proof that Slive thinks FSU doesn't add to the SECs footprint. You seem to think UF brings every FLA viewer/subscriber. As far as the $20 million goes, TAMU's was supposed to be around $30, but was negotiated down to around 12-15. That wasn't going to stand in the way. FSU has a lot of very wealthy boosters. If they want the SEC, they'll pay for it. Saying there's "zero chance" is silly, especially when you have no sources inside FSU's thinking.
This doesn't mean it's even likely. Only that I'm tired of you running around on this thread degrading everyone who says it's possible.
