The AAC is not quite as bad geographically speaking as this final Big 12 in 7 years, but bad enough that it is an issue right now with Susan Herbst and the BOT's. I know this for a fact. DB has a ton of pressure on him concerning this, with travel costs, classroom makeup time for student athletes, etc. If you add up each distance from Storrs, of Kansas, K State, BYU, Iowa State, SMU, Baylor, Texas, OK, OK St, etc, the total is alot more than if you do the same for the present AAC. The UCONN BOT's and the president would never approve UCONN for inclusion in the Big 12 for all sports, maybe football only but that's also a stretch.
