FSU PRESIDENT LAYS OUT PROS & CONS FOR ACC- ESPN has obtained a memo from Florida State president Eric Barron that includes four key points that would support a move from the ACC to the Big 12 and seven longer key points that argue against it. The memo seems to be an argument by Barron, who has stated the school is "committed" to the ACC, to stay in the conference. In the memo, Barron includes reasons for moving that include "The ACC is too North Carolina centric" and "The Big 12 contract (which actually isn't signed yet) is rumored to be 2.9 M more per year than the ACC contract." In the memo, Barron includes more reasons for not moving that include "The ACC is an equal share conference. "So when fans realize that Texas would get more dollars than FSU, always having a competitive advantage, it would be interesting to see the fan reaction."

DEADSPIN: FINEBAUM The BIGGEST small MAN in the SEC

Uncivil: How Paul Finebaum Keeps The SEC’s Dixie Aroused The Southeastern Conference (SEC) is the brawniest thing in college football right now, and a scrawny man, Paul Finebaum, sits atop it. Finebaum is the host of The Paul Finebaum Radio Network, a daily show that has won the men's 25-54 demographic in Alabama for five years running and which serves to overturn the rock and reveal the writhing passions of the SEC. Finebaum, a 56-year-old with a bald, turtle-like head and a Memphis accent, doesn't do much talking. When he does talk, he's monotone, sly, and deadpan. He is there to let his callers rant and spew.
