Texas is a huge state with a big growth rate in the Sun Belt. That's the argument I've heard a lot of MU fans say about going to the SEC. I don't see the difference.

Predictably, they have been unmitigated disasters. These schools have brought terrible football, terrible basketball, terrible academics, terrible fan support,.

The "bad football" argument has already been defeated by pulling up the Sagarin data showing there's zero difference in the cumulative ranking of all teams. Now you can argue about image, but quality of football is a myth.
I'm not certain how you argue "academics" here and as far as "fan support", only Nebraska football & ATM football were consistent big draws.
