Oklahoma would be a very good fit in terms of athletics. One of the premier, blue-blood football teams, solid basketball and baseball year in and year out.
However, considering the TV network argument, I just don't know how much a state with a population of 3.8 million appeals to that. Sure, they've got tons of alumni in Dallas, but so does Texas A&M, LSU, and Arkansas.
Also, if we were to accept them, surely we wouldn't bring "tag along" Oklahoma State with us, right? If not, that would only split up the TV markets even further.
The North Carolina/Virginia schools are the only logical choice for expansion.
