In the two years since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, abortion-rights advocates in Wyoming have been on the defensive. After Roe’s fall, the Wyoming Legislature’s near-total “trigger” ban was set to go into effect, though it stalled in court. The very next year, it was replaced by another near-total ban and an additional prohibition on abortion-inducing medications. And in March, the statehouse passed a bill mandating ultrasounds for women seeking the procedure and effectively regulating facilities offering abortions out of business.

Fitz believes if the Big 12 tries to take Florida State, Clemson and at least two more from the ACC, that conference could shatter with the Big Ten and SEC stepping in to add teams, including taking FSU and Clemson from the Big 12's grasp. And why there are many solid brands in the ACC, adding schools such as USF and UConn to preserve the ACC and to secure the league's two best brands for the Big 12.
