Snyder thinks NU wants back into the Big12.

If the B12 loses it's top 2-3 schools, the conference name still has more cache than the MWC. The B12 schools won't be absorbed by the MWC. The opposite will happen. The B12 will backfill with the top schools from the conference.

We already have a pretty good idea what that block will look like because it's happened before.

B12 Mountain

BYU
San Diego St.
Colorado St.
New Mexico
Wyoming
UNLV
Air Force

B12 Plains
Oklahoma St.
Kansas St.
Iowa St.
TCU
Baylor
Texas Tech
WVU

There isn't going to be a 24 team super(mediocre) conference. The WAC tried it before and the core block fled almost immediately creating the MWC. That core block also just happens to be the seven schools listed above.

Dont forget the ACC needs 2. ND and Uconn? Uconn and WVU in case ND doesn't comply.

ND will eventually be forced to fully join the ACC. UConn probably should have already gotten an invite, maybe WVU should get proactive about jumping ship while a spot's open.

Easy, it took less than 3 seconds to type. It's a more palatable division name than the B12 "Detritus".

PS Your post needs more question marks.

Muck - just trying to be funny, no insult meant.

I never understood WVU in the Big12 - they are such a miss match culturally and geographically.
