[QUOTE="Randy Carson, post: 882244, member: 766"] Teasing this out a bit more... [LIST=1] [*]Early on, GT offers the B1G the #7 TV market for its members which adds to its exposure in the top markets nationwide. That translates into more TV revenue. [*]Additionally, Tech is no real threat to win a game against the flagship programs. That translates into easy conference wins for the B1G dogs. [*]I don't see Tech as a threat to recruit kids away from Ohio, Wisconsin, etc. Our turf is the Southeast, and we are not going to be poaching stars from the B1G schools. [*]Furthermore, as Tech begins to rebuild its program, we might actually siphon off a few key players from Alabama, Georgia and Clemson. This would make the BIG contenders happy. [*]Finally, playing at Bobby Dodd or the GA Dome gives the teams from the frozen north a chance to play a warm weather game from time to time. [/LIST] We have one drawing card that may interest one potential buyer. Otherwise, we're playing ECU, Coastal Carolina, and the rest of the also-rans. [/QUOTE]
