Message: [QUOTE="ScottVib, post: 4651609, member: 694"] Except is Clemson content more valuable as a 9-1/10-0 national title contender in the ACC or a 7-3/8-2 at large contender in the SEC. Expansion is a zero sum games. Some brands that are now strong (like Clemson’s) were built on a recent run of success. Limit/Eliminate that and you limit the value of the brand. Clemson adds no new market to the SEC. Obviously, they’re a clear top target, but not such a massive target that you overpay other schools to accommodate getting them to the SEC if the SEC needs four to make a move it’s hard to find 4 schools that would be available to them to break-even at that price tier; let alone add value and income to the pot (because you don’t make the move as the SEC to wind up with roughly the same per team dollars as you started with).
