Under NO circumstance is t.u. worth the trouble they bring to a conference. The SEC does not need them. Bring t.u. in and you will have the same situation as you had in the SWC and the Big12. A conference at odds with one another and schools looking to get out. They are the black plague of college sports. The SEC should leave well enough alone.

Would vote yes for Clemson
And i would vote NO again on tu. so would mizzou, lsu likely as well. Slive and his predeccesor dont want to invite the humble brag into a conference genuinely built on conference equality.
If the U were winning again, tu would not be nearly as attractive inthe southern region. Ou would be much better.

The SEC should extend invitations to Virginia Tech, North Carolina, Clemson, FSU, and Ga. Tech long before they should t.u. t.u. has too much baggage and will try to take over the SEC once they are in the conference. So if you want a major distraction/liability in your conference t.u. is the program for you.
BTW, I vote "NO" on bringing them into the conference.

I don't get the love for Georgia Tech. Yes it is a very good school, but they are not SEC good. They left for a reason. They are the number two college team in Atlanta and they can't fill a small stadium.
Miami is also another school I don't see in the SEC. They are a small private school, and their stadium is 30 minutes away from campus on a good day. Plus the NCAA hammer is about the come down.
College football is great, but it does not do well when they have to compete with the NFL. Just ask SMU, U of H, Rice, Tulane and Minnesota.

No admittance to tu. Dr Loftin and BOR made a hundred year decision to move to SEC.I'm mystified about having this discussion at all.Are we doing this just for fun? Institutions in association must have respect for each other and not have to watch its back.
I've been personally to fifty one games between these schools. I have reconciled myself that the only right move is for each school to move in opposite directions. I can see in the future some athletic contests but strictly non-conference in mode.Texas A&M is a wonderful school that will grow and prosper. It doesn't need to be in conjunction with tu.
gig em!
