They would have had a lot in common, sure enough. But Ennis' dad was without question a homophobe, and possibly even a homophobic murderer. Whereas JT shows no evidence of being particularly homophobic.

She was one of hundreds of people in the stands at the rodeo where Jack meets Lureen. Her mother, Bonny, who is a cook at the hotel in Rockyford, says she can picker her out in the crowd.
The story Bonny told was that her daughter turned quickly and ran straight in to Jake, knocking him on the ground. She was so mortified she then ran away.

Oh, good point, A, I never thought of it that way! In terms of "marrying beneath" and "high society" and other social terms that reference up and down, at that time, Jack was on the top of a mountain with Ennis, looking down on it all, and nothing seemed wrong. He was luckier than even the fanciest college-goer, that way.

Thanks Bud. Yep, I've always thought the dinner dance was particularly relevant to the idea of Jack being a "black sheep" or an outsider.
And, LOL, in re-reading my post I realize I made a typo/content error... I meant to write
"He can't even really participate in a conversation that's about college football, sororities and majors." (not marriages)

Boy, he did look mighty fine all in black with that leather sports coat though! ;D

Did Jack wanted to be a black sheep ?
