Why would the Big 12 want UNLV> the stadium has always been the key to expansion. I also see a UNLV and SDSU as a possible expansion target because of SDSU basketball rather than U Conn, They all want the stadium and some kind of profit sharing for visiting tickets sales. (Grand Canyon just joined the WCC along with Seattle U. This puts a lot of pressure on WSU and OSU to do something quickly.) Big 12 could make two divisions and cut down on travel and build regional rivalries back up: ie. BYU, Arizona, ASU, UNLV, SDSU, Colorado, WSU and OSU. Problem for UNLV and others is partial payouts to join league for a time like U of W with BIG. Increased football and basketball revenues for these teams would offset salary increases and related costs of ancillary athletics. OSU and WSU could easily absorb less renumeration to join Big 12 but who wants to fly to Spokane and Portland to bus to Corvallis.
