What's this?

WRT to BYU being "geographically isolated," the Big XII


was willing to add a "WVU island." Whereas the "BYU island" is located a lot closer to the conference, so location should be a moot issue for the Big XII. If the Big XII really wants to have a 12th member, then it would have no problem finding one either as a full member or football-only member (i.e. Navy's membership in the AAC). By adding a football-only member, the Big XII could lower its standards a little and still be in better shape than the ACC.
