If Kansas would jump to the B1G, the logical other addition would be Kansas State. Notre Dame will join the ACC, and that really only leaves them with 1 other school to add and they could be selective(UCF or Cincy would be my guess…like others have said, academics don’t matter at this point). UCF to Boise would be a hell of a road trip. The G5 conferences just need to say f it and start from scratch. Make regional conferences that make sense.
KSU won't get an invite to the Big 10. I'd be shocked if they did. To even get considered, you have to be an AAU member and KSU is not. Nebraska WAS prior to getting into the Big 10 and not having AAU membership was an unpopular move by the Big 10.
However, Iowa State is AAU and could go along with Kansas to even things out.
The ACC is likely to stay where it is. It doesn't seem to sense a need to add more to what it currently has. wvu doesn't add anything except an annoying fanbase that the ACC teams would be happy to no longer be a part of. wvu doesn't offer much else.
I will say, in the lower levels of the FBS, wvu does add value to the AAC. Mike Aresco should be lobbying like hell to get wvu, even though wvu would never take it (until everyone tells Shane Lyons to shove it up his ass and says, "you're not getting into the Autonomous 4 Clubhouse, get lost you little sh*t").
So the ACC probably isn't expanding, but in case they do?
I think the ACC grabs Cincy. Decent academics, big student body, good city, and their stadium could be expanded.
Also, unlike others Cincy is currently a pretty hot team. Just made their 2nd straight conferenfe title trip, and played in a NY6 Bowl.
But one thing Cincy brings to the table that the ACC does NOT have, a school in the state of ohio. The recruiting would expand into one area the ACC doesn't have direct access to.
