Report: SEC, Big Ten Unlikely To Add Florida State If They Leave ACC

Brett McMurphy of the Action Network reported Tuesday morning that the SEC and Big Ten are unlikely to add Florida State should they leave the ACC.

According to McMurphy, Florida State does not make financial sense for either league, and his sources have said that the Seminoles have shown “it’s not a good partner.”

Three SEC presidents recently told Action Network they had “no interest” in adding Florida State. It takes 12 of the 16 SEC presidents to favor adding another school.

The Big Ten also is not interested in the Seminoles, sources said.

“[Big Ten commissioner] Tony [Petitti] is staying away from expansion, and we’re taking Tony’s lead,” a source said.

Added another: “Why would anyone want to expedite more chaos by adding Florida State?”
