With the way regional culture has evolved over the last hundred years, Nebraska and Iowa both fit better in the big 12 then the big 10, but there is no way those schools would ever consider jeopardizing their big 10 membership for one extra year of football let alone consider permanently changing conferences,
I disagree.

I'd never have thought Texas A&M would dream of cutting ties with Texas, but it's happened.

Nebraska tossed about a century's worth of history and tradition to the curb when they left Oklahoma. That didn't work out so well, this might actually be a good time for them to hit the reset button.
The Big 12 is full of teams that would love to play them again, while the Big 10 doesn't really give a shite about them one way or the other.

Nebraska’s problem is recruiting.

They may as well just pull a Vandy and perennially soak in money without contributing bowl money to their respective conference.

Not only is the glory gone, but the window is getting much much smaller.

Everything you said is true but it doesn't matter, the big 10 is so far ahead of the big 12 in terms of clout, staying power, academics, the list goes on. The big 12 may be looking good in this one single comparison of likelihood of 2020 fall football, but every single other card in the deck favors the big 10. Nebraska is never going back.
