I do hope KU lands on their feet and it would be cool if they make it to the B1G, I just don't see what that conference gains from KU joining.

It improves the basketball brand. Football matters. So do national brands, and kansas remains a national brand.
When you look at what's left of other big schools, I'm not sure where else the B1G would go as it tries to expand.
