Athletically, BYU would make a strong addition to the conference. However, its bid falls through with a simple glance at BYU’s pro-discriminatory Honor Code that all students and staff must follow. Other contenders in the pack to join the Big 12 include the University of Cincinnati, the University of Houston, the University of Connecticut and Colorado State, to name a few. Each of these teams could benefit the conference while still keeping the integrity and inclusiveness of the Big 12 intact. If the Big 12 needs a little help with its decision, it should look toward the NBA, which pulled its All-Star Game from North Carolina due to a discriminatory bathroom law. Inclusion must occur at all levels, from the playing fields and courts to the classrooms.
