Nope. The negatives far outweigh the positives. It had been a disaster upon the SEC.

The dirty little secret is that all these moves were made in order to make more and more money. In order to keep that money train rolling you have to "invest" in your profitable businesses, I.e. football and basketball.
Why this huge appetite for money? It takes a lot of money to fund dead weight women's athletic programs. Have you seen how much money women's sports lose? There are very few athletic departments that operate in the black and do not need institutional support.
TL;DR - Blame it all on Title 9.
