You want the SEC Network to blow the doors off every other network? Here's the plan.
1. Hire Verne and Gary and give them the Bama game every week. Oh wait, CBS already does that.
2. Hire Ron Franklin and give him the best game of the week and make sure it is at night.
2b. Hire sideline reporters whose actual names are Honey, Baby, Darling and Sugartits to keep Ronny on the good side of the law.
3. Hire Nessler and Blackledge and give them the second best game of the week. Start it four hours before the Ron Franklin game.
4. Hire Rece and Jessie and give them the next best game, as long as Bama and Florida are not involved. Start this game four hours before the Nessler game.
5. Hire Fowler and Herbstreit and let them do the next best game on Thursday night. Then they can do Gameday from the Franklin or Nessler sites.
6. Hire the three Daves and put all the Vandy and Kentucky games at 11, even if they are playing Alabama. If all three Daves are not available, just find another Dave.
7. Hire Tom Rinaldi and his pianist to do profiles on every player in the SEC. Play these in pre-game and halftime of every game.
Ratings bonanza.
