re: Missouri would be a mistake; Clemson or FSU needed to preserve SEC

VTs board of directors is appointed by the governor, as well as UVAs. Since UVA pulled a mini coup to get VT in the ACC in the first place, i dont see the governor being happy with VT walking out and leaving UVA with egg on its face. Further more, there has been zero smoke coming from that camp anyways.

Clemson/FSU will not have the votes.

I dont think they would either. I also am not sure they would even consider leaving UNLESS the renegotiated SEC tv contract got a whole hell of a lot bigger. The ACC is due to renegotiate as well, and their contract should improve, especially with espn in regards to basketball. Bball may not be football, but it still draws good ratings and there is some money to be made there. The only reason either school would come to the SEC is more money, and Im not sure that enough extra cash would be there to justify the move.
