Good academics, good basketball and most important: both school and fan base actully physically located in the Dallas area. Having A&M, Arkansas, LSU, Auburn and Bama fan bases coming into Dallas weekly in the fall, renting hotels, eating at restaurants, drinking at bars will get the city firmly behind the SEC.

It would also turn the cross town Iron Skillet game with TCU into a really big thing again as a SEC vs B12 match up

I agree that SMU would work. I also like ECU, but it needs to drop the "East" for branding purposes. A school that is very "outside the box" is ODU. The name alone sounds SEC. However, ODU has a long way to go with its football program.
