"Louisiana" is ULL, right?
Why kick Ohio U out of the MAC?

Otherwise: your ideas intrigue me, and I would be very interested in subscribing to your newsletter. :)

Only for the purpose of getting everyone to equal conferences. Ohio isn't geographically out of place in a couple of the conferences on the board. You could move Northern Illinois, but where? The rest are pretty Core MAC and moving them makes little sense.

So the answer to my 1st question is "yes"?

And WVU is similarly well situated for several conferences.

Yeah, I don't know how you left of CGNU off of this list. Their Golf Club Team is amazing. Just came of a great win vs "Homestar's Knees Tech" Dumples are rolling this season.
