Interesting...
The final vote was 12-3, per ESPN, with Clemson, Florida State and UNC voting against expansion and N.C. State — which opposed the expansion earlier this month — flipping to a “yes” and serving as the swing vote in the meeting of school chancellors and presidents.
So how long until Clemson and FSU raise enough money to jump to the SEC?"If there is one thing I am, it's always right." -Ted Nugent.

Ok, so that joke fell flat. But if not the taxpayers, who do you think will service Cal's debt?

I don't know. I hear the payments on their athletics program debt is $18M/yr and it will eventually double. They were in terrible financial shape long before USC/UCLA bolted.

Right. I'd be shocked if the tax payers didn't end up footing most of the bill. Of course all California will do is continue to raise taxes."If there is one thing I am, it's always right." -Ted Nugent.

I have never liked this whole realignment thing; yes obviously we have been a part of it, but point still stands. Guess just more of an old school type of guy when it comes to this, but it is the way it is, not gonna change now. I can see Cal and Stanford for academic purposes and they are decent in a lot of sports, but not 100 percent how much prestige if you will SMU will bring, but anyway.
As a Tar Heel basketball fan, must say gonna be strange that the Heels at Cal will be a conference game lol, smh.

And what if the B1G and SEC pass on those schools?"There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!
For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."
