What's the financial penalty? The SEC does not have a GOR. I mean is there any legal recourse? Could Texas say they changed their mind? Could Aggie leave? What are the penalties? I don't think the SEC has any. The money would dwarf anything the SEC can add at this point.

I'm pretty sure the Big Ten schools would make less fun of you. They are woke and would welcome Aggie.

Why would they want Texas A&M

Its a faux University

The entire gimmick of the entire shithole is an inflated endowment that means nothing

Texas A&M takes orders from and bows down to Battelle located on Ohio State's campus and Ohio State does not even include it in their endowment for example.

Its a second class place

While it won’t happen he’s right. B1G just added a huge population base and if the added Texas their contract would dwarf that of the SEC. You wouldn’t have the population base to compete money wise. It’s simple math.

except “viewing area” doesn’t really mean anything anymore. the Big 10 has 4 programs that really care about football. the SEC has the entire conference except Vandy. so if your new TV deal pays you a billion, and ours pays 900 million, there’s no discussion

TV contracts aren’t based on population bases. It’s not the 90’s anymore.

The top rated CFB markets are always New Orleans, Birmingham, Memphis, Charlotte, Greenville, Richmond, Greensboro, and Columbus

There’s a better chance of Ohio State and Michigan joining the SEC

In this scenario you’re putting a whole lot of faith in UCLA and USC actually sticking to a commitment for football (and athletics in general) and fans from both schools actually wanting to watch it and give a shite. On top of that the issue for the Big 10 in this deal is finding the perfect TV slots every week with a cross-country super conference. Other than Thanksgiving weekend you’re looking at USC and UCLA finding it hard pressed to get a nice CST afternoon or EST early afternoon slot every weekend that works for everybody, let alone a primetime game. Most weeks they’re gonna be looking at super early for the west coast or late-super late for the hardcore Big 10 fans, and somewhat late for the general college football fan in the CST who doesn’t have their favorite playing that night. I just don’t see where the B10 is really gaining in a market here, just seems like because of the time change they’ll lose a fair amount of viewership in one or the other markets (outside of big marquee games that may at best happen 3-4 times a year); and even in a big marquee game could be competing against a big grudge match in a primetime slot from the SEC.
