Other than WVU, nobody in the conference has respect/support/exposure on a national level in football. And while the acadamies do have some support nationally, let's not overstate their value. The PAC 10 or Big 12 aren't hard after Air Force even though they are better fit. The ACC isn't interested in Navy as far as we know. Nobody is looking to add Army.
BYU would obviously be attractive, but we can't land them. Boise is a longshot, and BYU is in a stronger position than Boise.
I believe ECU has been almost or as good as Navy in the computers, which we need for our BCS status.
Actually Air Force's AD said they had a B12 invite in hand, and turned it down, because they didn't feel they could recruit and compete against Texas, Oklahoma and OK State.
