It's been widely reported that there is a gentleman's agreement among the SEC not to admit a school from a state already in the SEC. If schools want to keep out an in-state competitor and vote as a bloc, there's enough votes to keep out George Tech, Clemson, FSU, Louisville and others.

If you let in A&M, who is the 14th? Could be another Texas school, but Missouri, Maryland, Virginia/VTU all seem to make sense.

We'll see what happens Monday, but right now beyond A&M to the SEC I'm not buying any of the rumors out there.
