Yeah - UNLV, SDSU, and UNM are all dying to play in front of less than 10k in humid Houston for football and less than 1k in basketball!!!!!

New Mexico would, you’re damn right. The other Mountain Division programs as well. Why do people ignore printed facts? The MWC is attracted to playing in Texas.

Then you don't grab Rice, you grab UTSA or Texas State. Even UNT may work if you just wanna do it for recruiting.

Except that academics and silly things like image matter to school presidents. Rice improves the academic standing of the conference and I'm sure Air Force is all-aboard in inviting them. Wyoming, Colorado State, and San Diego State are all respectable and would benefit from the association.

UTSA, Texas State, and UNT were not even on the Big XII's extended list, much less the finalists. I think that's the best measurement in the totem pole that is expansion.
