What happens for instance when Texas has to travel to Wash St for baseball or volleyball? Not fun.

Yea I agree, that will be tough. I hate how the NCAA runs things, its like they prey on college athletes to get money, then they throw up these allegations and crap when the students that make them money get money.
With how things are though and all things considered(Big 12 dissolving), I don't understand why Texas doesn't join the SEC; I don't understand them going to the Pac 10. I mean I understand Oklahoma going, they sort of in that area where they could fit into a lot of different conferences and be ok. Nebraska going to the Big 10 is probably best for them. Texas would fit perfectly in the SEC though; and it'd probably help their recruiting.
