    Let's boot Ole Miss and invite UT-Arlington into the SEC

    UT-Arlington? Why them?

    1) They have no football program. They come in, they're going to be forced to establish a football program. They'll be an easy win for at least a decade, and Conference wins are worth their weight in gold.

    2) They bring in the DFW market. Texas A&M locks down South Texas for the SEC, UT-Arlington would lock in the 5th largest market in America to the SEC.

    3) They have a respectable basketball and baseball program.

    4) They could play their games at Jerry World, ie, The Death Star.

    5) I could watch The Mississippi State University at least every other year close to the House.

    6) UT-Arlington is a decent school, with none of the corruption and taint that Ole Miss brings to the SEC.

    I'd prefer Kansas - great basketball addition, awesome track and field program, and their football team blows chunks. And from an old airborne solider perspective - that entire state makes one sweet flat drop zone.

    Rode a bus across Kansas once. Now understand why farmers axe-murder their families in the winter.

    Does we even discuss SMU or do we fear what may happen in they are in the SEC for 5+ years?

    SMU has real money and real pretentious assholes - unlike the posers UNM tries to be.

    Not a big enough school. DBU is like Misaps. Great baseball program but doesn't have the student body size for the SEC.

    North Texas would be a better option than UTA. At least they already have a football program and nice stadium.

    Could probably get TCU to leave the Big 12 for the SEC as well.
