There is a reason all those schools left the Valley. 

Yet people are talking about bringing MVC schools to A10, so over the years better teams have left The Valley because they were hood enough to be wanted by someone else…just saying that seems a bit hypocritical to say the Valley sucks yet teams get chosen by better conferences…I mean a couple got chosen over SLU.

You keep changing what you said to try to fit your bad argument.  You originally said that it "(s)eems a bit ironic that for years a large portion of the fan base seemed to have the thought that SLU was too good for the MVC."  Nobody has said SLU it too good for the MVC.  What people have said, and this is an absolute truth, is that it would not make sense for SLU to switch from the MVC to the Valley.  Doing so is step backwards.  When a team gets a chance to get out of the Valley, they take it.  That includes times where teams have left the Valley to join SLU in the A-10.  There is no irony here.

Big 12 officials are targeting four current Pac-12 schools for potential membership, according to college football insider Dennis Dodd.

Those four schools are Arizona, Arizona State, Utah, and Colorado.

The desire to expand comes after the bombshell that Texas and Oklahoma, the league's two biggest brands by far, announced they will leave the conference and join the SEC after the 2023 football season.

And it comes a year after the Big 12 added four new members — BYU, Cincinnati, Houston, and UCF — to help counter the departure of OU and Texas.

Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark outlined three primary objectives for his leadership of the conference, including signing a new media deal and finding a solution to the Oklahoma/Texas departure.

Now, the conference is moving towards Yormark's third goal: adding more members and increasing the league's footprint in the West Coast media market.

If it can, the Big 12 would be able to broadcast its content in all four time zones across the cou

Yomark has been so much better as B12 Commissioner than the last guy.  P12 is doing this to themselves they haven't locked in a new media deal yet.  I heard they got offered a streaming package and rejected it.  The longer it goes on the more the schools get antsy. Grabbing the AZ schools and bringing back UC and joining Utah with BYU all makes sense to me. 

That adds another basketball power to the conference.
