I wish.
They'd be a perfect fit for the SEC.
Great fan base, very loyal. Decent in all three sports, football, basketball and baseball. Outstanding facilities, all things considered. Strong NC TV footprint including the RTP that even extends into southern VA. Easy access via the RTP Airport and I-40 x I-95. 2200 acre campus, 25k undergraduate enrollment and located in the capital of the state of NC. Carter-Finley seats 60k but they fill the place and have a waiting list. It's a nice stadium too, ingenious design wrapped in a wide open concourse like it is.
A strong natural rivalry with SCAR, but also close proximity to UGA, UT, UF, Vandy and Auburn.
NC State was such a natural fit for the SEC. Too bad Slive couldn't make it happen. I know many fans and big wigs at NC State were hoping to get an invite.

Them or WVU. Missouri was an afterthought, just a way to get to an even number and preserve balance. The SEC wanted A&M for the network, and could have really taken anybody that said yes for #14.
