re: I already see a big problem with SECN

Since the network launched, there has been at least 30+ minutes of in depth analysis on the Alabama and Texas A&M QB situations.

Unless and until the SECN/ESPN installs actual Southern people to plan and program and actually run the shows, who are familiar with the SEC to be their talking heads for the network (other than maybe T Tebow - or in addition to T), you've going to get at best a superficial kind of SEC coverage.

Fact is, most of the midwestern/eastern regional talking types are so woefully unfamilar with the SEC beyond who they've heard of (see Alabama, Spurrier, Bear Bryant, Saban - maaaybe Billy Cannon around Halloween) back in their small town or insular Eastern environments, they have no idea of what to talk about when it comes to SEC football. Or who.

To most of them, the South as a region is some kind of exotic Dukes of Hazzard/Justin Wilson minstrel show - sort of funny, but of no real account to the rest of their reality.
