Air Force is the obvious choice in my view.

Fully depends. If Utah gets truck stop rolled this year, Utah and Nevada.

Utah is in the Big 12 unless that infinitesimally small chance at the Big 10 comes to fruition.

I hope you are right, a lot of people I've spoken with (maybe not a majority,

SNOT and Utah

Utah and Utah Valley, natural rivals

Rumor is the Nevada legislature won’t let UNLV go without Nevada.

How did that work for Cal and UCLA

Let them stay in MWC then far from must have.

Not true, they were in different conferences for years

That's expensive for little return and causes legal issues by pushing the MW
