[QUOTE="rfjeff9, post: 955850, member: 4174"] I have argued this for some time on another board, mainly with a UGAg fan. His take is neither SEC or B1G is going to add any team that doesn’t add to the collective take for all conference teams. Which went out the window just now with the PAC team additions to B1G. In addition, he maintains that due to streaming, markets do not mean as much now than 10 years ago. He is right to a degree, but he is looking at from a SEC $$$ perspective and assumes the B1G is thinking the same way, but he doesn’t understand what B1G is looking to do. I think it is still significant when regular B1G fans living in Atlanta start attending games and watching on TV. Atlanta is too big and growing rapidly for the market to be a non factor. I argue that markets specifically Atlanta coupled with recruiting areas are still relevant In the long run as well. So B1G adding GT and Miami are not just possible, but also likely in the future. Coupled with world class academics and AAU along with Hartfield Intl Airport right there next to us, I think it is just a matter of time before we make the move ((decade). I am ambivalent on it. I have no interest in playing Rutgers or Wisconsin, but I would love to see us shove foot in a** against the Terps. And follow up the next few weeks against UVA UNC, Miami. But we still need Ohio State and Penn a state to visit. That will draw some eyes. it all hinges on Brent Key and what attraction football wise he can garner in the next decade. We need everyone to be talking about how adding GT would be good for B1G football, nit FSU or Clemson. [/QUOTE]
