Travel is just an excuse - the market share BYU would bring would far outweigh

any additional travel cost. Not every P5 school has a major airport next door; the travel excuse isn't about flying into Provo, it is about flying to SLC - which is again, just an excuse. The distance from Austin TX to SLC is like 100 miles more than Austin to Cinci. SLC is about 250+ miles closer to Austin than Morgantown WVa.

I don't buy the "travel" excuse.

Maybe he is referencing B12 as B10 for math reasons and not saying B1G...

Because B10 = Big Ten; B12 = Big 12. You nailed it on the head when you said it
