[QUOTE="SOWEGA Jacket, post: 952432, member: 4334"] All true. But in college football the SEC is not going anywhere because a much higher percentage of high level players come from the southern region and want the easiest academic route to the NFL. So, all this talk of the SEC eventually fading away and the BIG having some sort of plan to overtake them on the field is laughable. Research dollars do nothing for the product on the field as GT fans all know. The only way that happens is if some body puts in academic minimums/standards that are actually enforced. However we know in todays society that would never be allowed. Hence, the SEC in most low income communities is seen as the path to the NFL. As hard as Ohio State, Penn State (and you know Franklin is begging) and a few others try to convince a 5 star to come a thousand miles away in the cold they aren’t coming in sufficient numbers to overtake the southern teams. And the west coast nuts will eventually get football banned in their region anyway which is why Cali’s studs all leave the state. But I agree if academics are ever mixed back into college football then GT will be in a great position whether in the BIG or SEC. [/QUOTE]
