West Virginia's brand is (I think) strong enough to warrant keeping them


Granted, they are geographically out there. But I can't think of anyone closer (that we could realistically add) that would be an upgrade. And Iowa State has enough history with the old Big 8 and Big 12 that i can't see them being booted either. Now, if the other conferences were shedding schools and someone like Nebraska or Arkansas became available, then I'm sure there would be at least some discussion on the matter. All I know for sure is that we don't need another texas school (except maybe in the event we boot Baylor for someone like Houston).

And so long as either the texas or Nebraska game gets a protected designation, I'm not sure North/South would matter to us.
