Yup, I suppose conferences once had teams from places with similar cultures.  The ACC kind of broke that rule, if it still existed, by having BC and Miami, et al.

Missouri is a different thing for us old timers, but they play hard nosed football and have some talent.  Drinkowitz is a very good coach I think.  I thought Stoops did well at Kentucky but he may have maxed them out.  At least they aren't Vandy now.

South Carolina had a run with Holtz and Spurrier but they seem unable to recruit.

The SEC schools at least still touch.....so there's that.

And no one else can say it.

Grab UNC and UVA .... still intact.

I much prefer conferences to have some sort of geographic congruity and cultural similarities, but $$$.

I presume the ACC's TV contract will be their doom at some point.  We might see the "Big East" come back with NE schools?

Ranking the most iconic SEC football stadiums from worst to first (usatoday.com)

Not far from just ranking seating capacity, but some nice photos.

They will probably snag one of the under 50% games (probabilitistically).  But, their final record likely won't be better than 4-8.  One might think any of us could coach that well at Florida.  I'm available.

I've "read" that Big Donors are already assembling the buyout check, but then who do you hire?  Jimbo?  Steve?

My guess is they'd need to pull up a lower level coach or OC/DC type.  Urban won't need the money nor the aggravation, SoS seems comfortable, Saban?  Nope.  

I'd personally stay put for one more season.  They have a good looking freshman QB who could do some stuff if they can get better line play.
