The last thing the B12 needs is another commuter school with a trash off-campus football stadium/

I was pounding the drum for BYU the minute Nebraska was sniffing around 15 years ago so I'm not against expansion when I think the program can add a lot of new value, but I think we'd be pretty crazy to add anybody for football now until the ACC situation becomes fractured or cemented.

UConn/Gonzaga for basketball only is a mixed bag but it makes more sense than adding any of the readily available football schools out there.

Duh!
Don’t know how it is at Minn, but at ISU if you’re a student that enters the ticket lottery and doesn’t get selected, that’d be a double blow to have to pay for facilities and still not get to buy tickets to go to the games.
Isn't the lottery for Freshman only? Your point still stands, but may have a more limited impact.

No Basketball only schools. they would have an unfair advantage in spending.
