With that the Big 12's only move would be to add SMU, Houston, Cincinnati, Memphis, Rice, UCF, UTEP, Colorado State, and other after thoughts just to stay viable.
Houston and SMU and Cincy will be shoe ins - I'll be proud of Memphis if they get in that
UTEP is on the brink of bankruptcy
Rice? No. Rice needs to pray for an all academic conference of: Rice, Vanderbilt, Duke (won't happen), Georgia Tech (won't happen), Boston College (won't happen), Tulane, Air Force, Army, Navy, SMU (if they don't get into the new Big12), and a frickton of basketball only all academics
the football portion of this idea is weak as hell with probably only 6 members

With the new NIL rules, I see private schools in or close to large metro areas as sleeping giants.
SMU has shown in the past that they'll "support" their football program.
Rice has some history there and fits that private school in a large metro area description.
UTEP would probably not make the cut, and I have no idea if the UT system could block UT affiliates from joining Big 12 v3.0.
At the end of the day, the Big 12 will either have to dissolve, or become a hybrid rebirthed SWC/AAC.
