Any basketball schools would come from the ACC. Texas Tech, Baylor, and TCU now have Texas by its balls politically speaking. Also, Texas isn't a big basketball name.
Besides, the SEC wouldn't get any more money from from adding Texas or Kansas from its network (Every Texas cable provider already pays and Kansas doesn't have any appealing markets to add). As far as CBS, they could see a bump, but if the current trend continues, major networks' "Game of the week" will go by the wayside as networks start expanding their own networks. As soon as commissioners realize that taking money from both subscribers and advertising could become very profitable with nationally appealing games, all bets are off.

Kansas would add about the same amount of subscribers to the SECN as Arkansas or Mississippi.
It wouldn't be a huge increase in money but there are still nearly 3 million people in that state.
