I hope that UAB football survives and they continue to be a football playing member of CUSA, but in the event that it does not, where's the best place for the rest of their athletic programs? I see a few possibilities: CUSA, Sun Belt, SoCon, Southland, Ohio Valley, Big South, Atlantic Sun. CUSA does not have any non-football members currently, and it's not clear if they would welcome one now. The Sun Belt, SoCon, Southland, Ohio Valley and Big South all sponsor football at some level but each have non-football members among their ranks while the Atlantic Sun is completely football free. I have no idea how actively any of these conferences are looking to expand or whether they would welcome UAB. All things being equal, if not CUSA, SoCon seems like the best fit.
