Of course it makes sense!
You’re logic is outdated and not aligned with todays college athletic landscape.  It’s actually outdated by about 20 years.

BC, Syracuse and Pitt in ACC?  WVU in Big 12?  Penn state, MD and Rutgers in Big????

USC and UCLA in Big?

So why shouldn’t UConn get it’s piece?  Why should UConn forever be linked to a bunch of small private Catholic schools that have a very different mission, a very different AD budget, and specifically don’t play football?  Because you have some fond memory of playing in MSG against DePaul or Marquette?

I’m so tired of hearing the Big East crowd whine about nostalgia?  Where  are the Yankee conference people claiming we should be playing RI, Umass, UNH and UVM?  Go debate with them, and when you realize why the Big East was the right decision, you’ll realize why the Big 12 makes sense now.

In 10-15 years you want to have another debate when the ACC deal comes up, fine.
But I don’t know anyone that passes up money today for potential money in 15 years.
