Our favorite uncle Gordon Gee is strongly suggesting the 10 member Big 12 expanding to 12 teams (again) is "most likely." Gee also states he would like a neighbor to the east, of his current WVU locale. Gee is also on the Big12 expansion committee.

I propose we trade the Big12 Purdue and Maryland for Texas and Oklahoma. That is a win/win for both conferences and their footprints. That will also allow the Big12 to nab two out of Louisville/Cincy/UConn and call it a day.
