Texas would have to ante up some huge dollars to get those teams to join.  If not, all three would be walking into the same crap scenario that Nebraska, A&M, and now Oklahoma are walking away from.  I don't see Texas doing that.  Texas will go independent before they have to split money again.  The B12 is in desperation mode now.  They are like the Titanic, once great and mighty in name and stature, seemingly unsinkable, but beneath it all completely flawed and exposed.  The water is through the cracks and pouring over the water tight bulkheads.  The ship is listing heavily.  Adding weight to the other side isn't going to make a bit of difference.  Meanwhile Capt. Texas has his plush and private lifeboat waiting for him to jump off at the last minute.

Not sure any BE team going to the B12 makes a whole lot of long term sense, besides TCU, and the Big 12 doesn't even want them.

No, I think the Big 12 is in it's death throes and grabbing for any floating debris it can to stay above water.  This is a case of the Conference vs. Texas, and Texas is going to win.

Kansas wants in with the BE.  That is not an issue.  They would jump in heartbeat.  Basketball drives that bus.  KSU is being towed by that bus.  The boys in Rhode Island better be ready to make a move.  I think they are.
