With the recent addition of Texas A&M University, the SEC is taking the initiative in securing the future success of our conference. Great news, right?!
Not so fast. There is now word circulating around various websites, that West Virginia University is being considered as the eastern division addition to the Southeastern Conference.
West Virginia is best known for having out of control fans, an ugly town in a very depressed state, and sub-par academia. We cannot allow this to happen. Nearly 90% of the WVU football and basketball squads come from out of state high school students. The state itself offers nothing to current SEC members. By definition, the state has 0 cities, and a tiny population of 1.8 million (and declining).
There have been several instances of current SEC fans having very bad experiences with WVU fans, and we've only seldom played. Ask any Auburn, LSU, or Georgia fan that has dealt with this fanbase recently. They are notoriously awful.
If VT is proud enough to jump to the ACC to end their long rivalry with WVU due to fan issues, surely the SEC has the gumption to look for a better option. Whether it be a Missouri, Kansas, etc.
I ask you to sign this petition for your team, and the SEC as a whole.
SEC! SEC! SEC!

I started this because I honestly feared for the direction of our conference and I am truly shocked that so many of you feel the exact same way. Sorting through these messages has been eye opening and it is clear that we all share a deep pride in the traditions we have built here.

SEC is about tradition and excellence. WVU is neither. Keep them in the Big 12 or whatever they are in now.
Geaux Tigers!!! Keep mountaineers away from the SEC. We have enough rivalries already without adding that mess.
Living in AL and I have dealt with these fans before at a bowl game and they were the worst people ever. Please no.
Total joke if they let them in. Academic standards matter too and they just aren't on our level.
Keep WVU out of the SEC! We dont need them bringing down our conference reputation. SEC is for the south not the mountains.

The culture just doesnt fit. SEC has class and those guys are just plain trashy.
