That would be like Big 10 adding Pitt.
I'm joking that TCU moves around so much, that it's taking them too long to move forward.

None, see above.
A Southern Man's Reasons T.C.U. May Never be in the SEC:
1. Southerner's take religion seriously. When T.C.U. officially changed their name to eliminate "Christian" in an effort to become more acceptable to the more anti-religious areas of the country they essentially soured all evangelicals in the South who are now completely convinced that they sold their souls to the devil for football acceptance in a foreign land. (For evidence watch "The Water Boy". "Foosball is evil Bobby!")
Antireligious?
Where is that coming from?

I didn't do the montage. So your complaints fall upon deaf ears.
Besides, what do you know about West Virginia, other than the stupid stereotypes that have been perpetuated by northerners used to put down West Virginia and West Virginians, who they've considered beneath them, since 1863?
This is why West Virginia doesn't associate itself as northern, southern, eastern, or mid-western. It's West - by God - Virginia.

I know, I don't really go for stereotypes but given they're trying associate things with certain states/schools, Cletus would go along with the WV stereotype just fine.

No. Only Jebediah Springfield wore the coonskin hat. It's essential to the motif.

You could apply Cletus to pretty much any school in the Big ~XII.

But Kansas is a very odd fit imo.
