No it isn't simply media created.
But when the people meet as your stating it always comes ending up the same. Logical decisions get made with geography leading the way.
I do not for one second doubt how much more important the media markets are on the coast compared to anywhere in the midwest.
But more times than not presidents, regents, etc have the integrity to make the right decision for the long run.
Competition matters. You want successful programs to keep money coming in. That's what made Texas A&M supposedly trying to get into the SEC mind boggling to me. They have decades worth of work to do before they're ready to play those teams.
