Vanderbilt is not leaving the SEC unless they want to. Period.
Temple says hi. And the Big East kicked them out for failing to invest in athletics long before the era where 60 million paychecks were at stake.
Vandy costs the SEC far more than the 60 million we pay them with nothing in return. All 8 Vandy conference games ESPN needs to show are viewed by them as dead weight on the overall tv package. Make those 8 games FSU instead of Vandy and the bidding goes a lot higher in the next tv contract.
Very soon, as the revenue battles continue and become even more of a necessity with pay for play, cutting dead weight will be much more profitable than trying to add new revenue to further dilute the Vandy’s.
