The only realisitic path would be other teams going Indy.
Other than that I personally can't see any conference ever adding BYU under the current political and social climate. I don't see that changing anytime in the foreseeable future.

Texas' schedule would look a lot more like Notre Dame's in my opinion

The problem is in 10 years, they will have had 10 years of P5 revenue.

Losing is sustainable if you're in the club. Just ask Vandy or Washington St
