If that number is really true then the Big 10 is going to have to do something big

Im not seeing this as being “Just go get Kanas” fix
Gotta hit the PAC. It's a long shot, but a big pull from there could get bigger contracts for everyone. Get Kansas and aim for 5 more schools. 4 pods of 5.

Hit the PAC's biggest revenue producers. Talk to Virginia. Maybe even talk to Texas A&M. A&M is the first or second biggest in revenue and poaching them would be a blow to the SEC.
Honestly if we added Kansas/ISU, I view it as the same band-aid the Big 12/PAC-12 did. SEC could start searching for new teams like OSU around 2030

I am on a group text. Mostly olds. Someone just suggested Texas leaving the Big 12 is our change to rejoin the Big 12. Add BYU. Alberts will help negotiate a massive TV deal. Recruiting will blow up in Texas.

What if this shit really happens and our conference ends up looking like this:
Division: USC, Oregon, Stanford, Washington, Cal, UCLA
Division: Nebraska, Minnesota/Cockeye, Kansas, Colorado, Utah, Arizona
Division: Minnesota/Cockeye, Northwestern, Wisconsin, Purdue, Illinois, Indiana
Division: OSU, Michigan, MSU, Maryland, Rutgers, PSU
Is there a Husker fan that wouldn't be happy with that? Tell me that wouldn't be good for us in the long term.

We would get the financial benefits and the stability of the Big 10, plus a division that would could win every year. Plus we could start recruiting in Arizona again. Utah and Colorado recruiting might improve too. And instead of going to Wisconsin for an away game we would be going to Arizona or Utah or Colorado, or driving down to Kansas.
If the B12 dissolves, and Kansas, Oklahoma and Cockeye lite go to a G5 conference it will help our recruiting in the 500 mile radius.
I mean, everything is on the table right? Maybe the leftovers will invite NDSU, SDSU and South Dakota to a watered down conference - kidding. Sort of.
