Dropping out of the MAC to play in the Horizon League would be a clear and obvious drop in status.

Granted, it's not that big of a leap, but, "...a clear and obvious drop in status" it is not. Over the last eight years (these past two included), the HL averaged an RPI ranking of 14 compared to the MAC's average ranking of 15. The HL had a horrendous last two years, which brought the average down from 12, while the MAC had its best two years, which brought its average up to 15. Take both sets of years away and the HL has a wider margin, 12-16. So, I don't think "dropping" down to the Horizon League would be that bad of a fall. "Clear and Obvious...that one cracks me up!
