UNLV doesn’t fit the academic profile of the Big 12
The commissioner is from Vegas, they already play their conference championships in basketball and football in Vegas. It's obviously a market they are courting.
It's not far fetched.
The commissioner has gone on record as saying that the past issues with academics and religion will no longer be barriers to adding teams. These were issues in the past with potentially adding BYU, and more recently Baylor and TCU were discussed.
They should add San Diego State, Fresno State, Boise State, UNLV, New Mexico and potentially Gonzaga and MAYBE St. Mary's in basketball only.
This would give them a school in every far western state except Wyoming and Montana.
They could even consider adding SMU to get a team in Texas and the central time zone. This would help with TV packages and recruiting.
They should market and hang their hat on being the conference of the West.
