COLUMBIA, Mo. — There’s no tour de news-making force quite like the Southeastern Conference’s annual meetings. The league’s administrators gather at a Florida beachfront resort to strategize.
Nobody so much as touches a ball during this stretch of the offseason. Yet everyone, hyperbolically speaking, finds something to talk about. Such is the nature of the powerhouse SEC and a tumultuous age in college athletics.
Naturally, not everyone agrees. For all the talking that took place at this week’s SEC meetings, there might not be all that much action. That’s how these things go, particularly against a backdrop of House settlement limbo and the looming threat of more change coming.
