Texas A&M

from MrSEC.com


MrSEC.com has learned that the Southeastern Conference has indeed called for a special meeting this weekend. The league’s 12 presidents/chancellors are expected to take part in the chat on Sunday.

A source inside one of the league’s 12 member institutions has confirmed to us that the meeting — or conference call — will take place. (We say conference call, because at least one top SEC administrator is expected to be unavailable for a face-to-face meeting this weekend.)

It’s assumed that this meeting will deal with the potential entrance of Texas A&M and/or Florida State into the SEC. It’s also possible that Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Virginia Tech will be mentioned during the discussion.

Whether this will be a temperature-taking session or an opportunity for SEC leaders to make a formal vote remains a mystery.

Has anyone heard of a time frame in which (if) any of these changes do take place? Since many most of the schedules are set several years in advance. I too would love to see A&M join the conference. It would give us an even better chance of snagging some of these hosses from the area.

I think next year; there will be so much money on the table they will make those old schedules go away. My boss at work read somewhere on espn (so he claimed) that it is going to be a super conference with FSU, AM, Ok and OK Sta added; 4 divisions; a four team playoff for the sec title

I love this because it will kill off the Big 12 and damage the BCS which in turn will inch us closer to a playoff.

Bump, totally on the mark. NCAA loses more control. NCAA wants bowl games, they have no control over the other side. Follow the money. Don't have to mention that to you kentdaddy.

There will still be bowl games, but it will be case closed, we will be closer to a true national champion than ever before.

Been a lot of talk on this board about the NCAA, think most of it coming from kentdaddy and myself. This might be the best article I have read coming from the media. kudos to Jeff Schultz.

Reading some of the replies to the article, explains why some of the athletes are not the only ones with a lack of gray matter. Amazing.
