WTF? No. Damn, why do my fellow SeC folks keep pushing this? Neither UNC nor UVA would add anything worth having to this conference.

Fertile recruiting, geographically completing the SEC as a fully southern conference, and 20 million people in a growing and prosperous region. For the record I think UVA for sure goes Big Ten with UNC likely to follow. But I think we should fight hard for UNC with NC St as a backup, while also considering VT. Conceding the entire Atlantic coast north of GA to the B10 would be a huge mistake.
