Nope. You won't be left out in the cold. In fact, your conference is making sure nobody gets left out in the cold...pretty benevolent, really.
Oh, you're a mid-major school in Fort Worth with 9,000 students affiliated with the Disciples of Christ? Well...we already have a private, religious school...and we've got plenty of Texas schools already...but I'm sure we can squeeze you in.
West Virginia, you say? Well...you are one of the worst schools in the country from an academic standpoint, and you're 1,500 miles away from the closest school in our conference...well...maybe just this once. Besides, Clemson and Florida State should be here any minute, so you'll have travel partners.
When you think about it, the Big 12 is kind of the crazy cat lady of realignment. If nobody wants you, she'll take you in. It reeks of shit, and everything is filthy, but it beats sleeping out in the snow.
