And, unless the Big Twelve folds anytime soon, it'll be a long wait for either GORs to expire or for the most eligible (by Big Ten standards) of the G5 schools to improve their academic and athletic performances to a level that satisfies the Big Ten school presidents.

Not that long, less than a decade until the Big XII GOR runs out. You can invite prior to it running out, they just can't leave before that. So we could invite 2-4 Big XII teams in 7-8 years. The B1G sat at 11 for 20 years.
