Name a more likely #12.

UAB has a history with those schools. They appear to have commitment now. Nobody in the MAC has been consistent. Nobody in the MWC fits geographically. Army doesn't seem interested. Sun Belt schools are almost all too new in FBS.

UAB would seem to be a slight favorite over any other CUSA or Sun Belt candidates. They are also more a part of the "club" than regional universities like WKU or Appalachian St.
