That's why they let it be known. 1st, To see who in the G5 is an actual viable candidate(s) (Colorado state and Houston). 2nd, They are gauging the interest of a few current P5 programs.( Arkansas, Colorado, and Nebraska ). 3rd, They are either looking at, or more likely have already been told. What it would take to acquire a network. Sometimes its not about population, but about content. Getting just one current P5 program to switch to the Big12 would be making a huge statement about the conference.

Colorado Sate is not viable. This is absurd. I live within 30 miles of Fort Collins and can assure you that Colorado Sate has a very small presence in Colorado...

CU similar; the Broncos are king. CU worked, so CSU will too if chosen.
