Maybe B-12 should pick up TCU and Bosie State. 

TCU already joined the Big East

I don't think the SEC will add FSU. It would add another in-state rivalry, which the commissioners have already said they would NOT like to add.
If we were to add another in-state rivalry, I would say it would be GT, because they were once part of the SEC. I think we would be more likely to add Mizzou, WVU, NC, OU or another team like that. Any farther west than OU/Texas A&M and I don't see it working well into SouthEASTERN Conference.

Amen shill.  Even though I believe Brantley sucks, Driskel should be the starter, and the spread offense should be brought back.  I cant see a running back like Jeff Demps being effective in a pro style offense.

The rumor went around that the SEC were to add Missouri, FSU, and Clemson after Texas A&M.

Update:  Texas A&M will not be headed to the SEC as of right now but the SEC did not deny the fact that it could happen in the future.

From the way I'm understanding it - A&M has a Board of Regents meeting tomorrow to decide if they want to stay in the big12. If they don't - and make it official, then the SEC or any conference would be allowed to invite. Just rumors until official word from A&M.

Was funny  - on some message boards - folks were using flight tracker to track school planes into Atlanta today.

OU or MIZ would be good for TV expansion markets, as A&M would be a good for Houston and possibly DFW markets.

Seemed like it was a surprise that the SEC denied A&M.  Everyone was saying that it was as good as a done deal.

Rumor mill is still going though.  They still say it's likely going to happen.  "They" being random people on rivals who pretend to be insiders.  :lol

They don't need to track anything in or out of Atlanta. They need to track when the SEC commissioner makes his flight out to Texas if he stops in College Station for a "refuel" on the way to Austin to meet with the Texas legislature then you can be pretty sure that the deal is done regardless of what happens in the meetings that will then happen in Austin with the state legislature.

The big deal breaker though will be if the state legislature says that whatever you do you have to do equally for the other schools in Texas by which they mean Baylor, Texas Tech, et al...

An AnM spokesman speaking off the record said even if the SEC invited them nothing could or would be done till after the football season. I dont have anything against AnM Texas is just my team, But the SEC wants the 10th biggest TV market that comes with AnM its ALL about the money. And there has been a cable program cable BEVO for years and no one said a thing, but when ESPN rebranded it from state wide to nation wide did AnM get pissed they could have started there on program at any time. And Texas is not the first program to do this kind of TV deal.
