re: Is TCU on the SEC short list?

No. D/FW, Houston, and SA are not college football crazy. DFW and Houston are pro towns. I'm not saying there aren't college fans but there's not enough support. SMU and TCU alumni combined are not enough to support a quality SEC team.
I'd love it if TCU went to the SEC. If a major player in expansion is gaining TV markets, A&M gets Texas. TCU adds nothing.

My question is if the ACC picks up Pitt and Syracuse and lets assume teams won't leave the ACC now with those teams added. If we are limited to the remainder of the Big East and Big 12 to reach a 16 team conference. Who do we go after?

Wut? The state of Texas is plain football crazy. Doesn't matter whether it's HS, college, or pro. TCU just doesn't have much of a fanbase.

That isn't true. DFW is UT/OU/aTm crazy. SA is UT crazy. Houston is UT/aTm/LSU crazy. Nobody is TCU crazy.

You have no clue about what you're talking about, at least relative to DFW. I live in FW and this place is rampant with UT, A&Mm Tech and OU alums and fans, as well as LSU having an extremely large alumni association because of the oil and gas industry and obvious job opportunities for recent graduates.
