It has everything necessary to field dominant programs in football, basketball and baseball with the right coaches.

The additional TV audience and Texas' academics are very attractive. Not certain that offsets the potential dominance of the Longhorns on the field and court for enough SEC schools.

If Texas and another school is admitted for sixteen members and the conference is divided into four team pods (a frequently suggested format for sixteen team leagues), how would you like to Arkansas and in the same pod as LSU, aTm and Texas?
