they fit the criteria:
a) big market team (yes i realize they dont have a giant following, but they still open up the DFW market even further)
b) they are quasi homeless at the moment
c) because of (b) they are very open to moving
d) taking TCU will not bring another conference crashing down. eg, they dont disqualify a conference from having a CCG and are not a lynchpin in a conference's makeup.

Okay, so maybe 'hell no' was a little strong.

I agree that they open up Dallas, which would be nice. And, after getting A&M and (Houston) it would be good to get DFW, as well.

How open are they considering that they're supposed to joint the Big East next year? I haven't seen anything from them stating that they were interested.

I guess if the Big East implodes, like it's looking like it might, then I guess that certainly opens them up.

I don't know - I guess I just don't consider them to be a school with the long-term athletic hops worthy of being in the SEC. And before anyone says Vandy - they're grandfathered in.
