If blue chip player elect to attend non SEC schools it will send a loud message. It’s the old adage “money talks and BS walks”. When the talent goes elsewhere and the losses add up, watch how quick they stop gerrymandering.

I agree. Football is religion down here in the South, much more so than religion itself some would argue. And the money involved just adds to the leverage point you’re writing about.

How could someone send their kid to Mississippi or any of the SEC schools

I agree. And as a partisan thought, I'd add Ohio State University to the list.

Agreed.

Indentured servitude, no longer.

Zero sum mindset of the historic South has met its match in this money first NIL era.

SEC actually spoke of seceding from NCAA.

The last time the South seceded they lost their labor class to migration and legislation.
