Maybe Kansas is attractive. Texas Tech and OkSt borderline. ISU, WVU, BU, TCU …
No chance. KSU … ewww but if they take KU and stoop to TTU and Ok St maybe. But UNM or UNLV/UNR as a “diversity hire” or even CSU prob better than KSU to round out a group.
That group of Six are looking AAC bound unless they somehow build a new Big12.
ISU might have a slim chance at B10. But same problems. They might need a KU/KSU/ISU raft to get B10.
KU is a valuable property and can prob get SEC or B10 or PAC or even ACC attention.
