For those of you that insist on suggesting expansion teams that have no chance of being added let me help you. All B10 Universities and the University of Chicago ( a former athletic member) belong to the American Association of Universities. http://www.aau.edu/about/article.aspx?id=5476
If the college you are proposing is not listed among the 62 institutions then forget it. To admit ND would require an exemption, it is probably the only college that would be exempted. Also keep in mine that states contiguous to the current states represented would be preferred, that means Missouri, New Jersey, New York, West Virginia, and Kentucky would contain candidates. Neither Kentucky or West Virginia have members. The pick will come from one of the three remaining states or an existing state.
