RE: The impact of a Magnolia League in the early 60s
Some of this is unlikely in the 1960's, particularly with travel. In addition, SMU and Rice were more than competitive at this time in the SWC (moreso than, say, TCU or Baylor, which are now every bit as academic as SMU.) SMU was getting big crowds at the Cotton Bowl, so trading this in to play Virginia would have been DOA.

One still major college school somewhat forgotten today would have been a good candidate: William & Mary (considered as a possible ACC addition at least once).
