Well we are getting recruits left and right from our rival in Austin and recruits frequently mention the SEC as one of the reasons. So... you're dumb.

I think it may help the new members or teams on the geographic fringe of the SEC, but for the majority of members, another SEC team winning the national championship does not help recruiting.
The conference is already established.

A very large part of that is because of the newness. Same with missouri. That's a selling point you haven't had in over 100 years that you do now. That's slightly different. Plus Texas isn't in the SEC and you don't play them every year. You may get some kids that were 50/50 on yall and texas, but the kids that are 50/50 between yall and lsu, bama, auburn, etc. will go there instead, because they're winning titles.

I agree to a point, but I think the geographical outliers like A&M, Mizzou, S. Carolina, Kentucky, etc. can use the pitch differently. Mizzou isn't going head to head with other SEC teams for a lot of the players they recruit. Georgia isn't going to recruit a 3* kid in Iowa because they can find 20 of them in GA, but for that kid in IA Mizzou might be his only shot at getting an offer to an SEC program.
