[Husker] West Virginia set to join Big XII this year

[Andy Knipp]

The hard thing will be the non-revenue sports.  B12 now has 4 wrestling
teams, but WVU will only wrestle in a B12 tournament, and will not go to
ISU/OU/OSU

That is stupid because they could do it in 1 trip a year,  either to ISU or
OU/OSU on the same weekend.  I wonder how baseball, track, etc will be
handled.

Are you kidding me? 

This was Dana Holgorsen's first year as head coach. Their first year in
learning his offense and by the end of the year, look what happened. 

They basically invited Mike Leach back into the conference, and they will
again have to fly to a foreign land to play games on the road. West Virginia
may not be Oklahoma, but they will cause that conference plenty of pain.
