We ran across this video recently, and we thought we'd put it up for everyone to view. It ran at the end of Raycom Sports final SEC game during this past SEC basketball tournament in Tampa.
We all know about the SEC's new ESPN deal which put the conference in the highest of financial brackets, but it is worth a moment to watch this video. The announcers giving their thoughts on the end of Raycom's SEC deal all have deep ties to the conference, either from the geography of their hometown or from their alumni ties.
We're proud of the SEC and the magnitude of their deal, but ESPN will likely be a different animal all together. Their interest in the SEC centered largely around getting wider carriage for ESPNU. Like most of their year one attempts, ESPN's SEC coverage may have a few hiccups.
One of the most recent examples was Chris Low's story about Lane Kiffin's supposed "gas pumping" comment about South Carolina's football program. Whether or not this it true, it quickly became fodder for bloggers. ESPN surely loves a good controversy for all their talking heads to discuss.
Certainly, the SEC is no stranger to controversy. It just usually comes from all the different corners of the conference, like local columnists or bloggers, as opposed to the one network positioning itself as the long term future home of SEC Sports.
So far, there's not a whole lot of SEC content ESPN.com yet. They do have a good SEC Blog run by the aforementioned Low. We assume there will be more to come as football season gets closer.
We must give ESPN credit for airing two SEC spring games - Georgia's last weekend and Alabama's this weekend. There is little doubt that ESPN's media weight will be able to push the SEC further than it has any other time in the recent past
Clay Travis recently said it best - it's an end of era in the SEC on many levels. The only thing that remains the same is change. We can embrace it wholeheartedly, but it is still worth a few minutes of your time to look back on the last couple of decades, if only for some of us to see how much time has so quickly passed.

Goldberry!' he cried. 'My fair lady, clad all in silver green! We have never said farewell to her, nor seen her since the evening!' He was so distressed that he turned back; but at that moment a clear call came rippling down. There on the hill-brow she stood beckoning to them: her hair was flying loose, and as it caught the sun it shone and shimmered. A light like the glint of water on dewy grass flashed from under her feet as she danced. They hastened up the last slope, and stood breathless beside her. They bowed,louis vuitton outlet but with a wave of her arm she bade them look round; and they looked out from the hill-top over lands under the morning. It was now as clear and far-seen as it had been veiled and misty when they stood upon the knoll in the Forest, which could now be seen ugg boots clearancerising pale and green out of the dark trees in the West. In that direction the land rose in wooded ridges, green, yellow, russet under the sun,ugg boots outlet beyond which lay hidden the valley of the Brandywine. To the South, over the line of the Withywindle, there was a distant glint like pale glass where the Brandywine River made a great loop in the lowlands and flowed away out of the knowledge of the hobbits. Northward beyond the dwindling downs the land ran away in flats and ugg boots clearanceswellings of grey and green and pale earth-colours, until it faded into a featureless and shadowy distance. Eastward the Barrow-downs rose, ridge behind ridge into the morning, and vanished out of eyesight into a guess: it was no more than a guess of blue and a remote ugg boots clearance white glimmer blending with the hem of the sky, but it spoke to them, out of memory and old tales, of the high and distant mountains. They took a deep draught of the air, and felt that a skip and a few stout strides would bear them wherever they wished. It seemed fainthearted to go jogging aside over the crumpled skirts of the downs towards the Road, when they should be leaping, as lusty as Tom, over the stepping stones of the hills straight towards the Mountains.
