Realistically there’s EKU, UTC, and maybe a few of the WAC Texas schools.

I don’t think UCA or Kennesaw St are ready to move.

Missouri St is an odd scenario—I think they opt to stay FCS.


UCA is like 30 to 45 minutes drive from Conway to War Memorial Stadium depending on traffic. War Memorial Stadium could be a temp home for UCA until they get their stadium expand. The businesses and the city wants Little Rock to add football, but this would satisfy them some for now.

Missouri State said they want FBS. Their stadium is FBS size already, and they already added new stuff to the stadium like a scoreboard. Missouri State will join CUSA as long as MTSU and WKU stays in C-USA.

SFAU with temp seatings can be ready and so is Lamar.

Chattanooga is there with their stadium.

Tennessee State and Murray State are there with their stadium size.

North Carolina A&T and Florida A&M are ready to go along with Texas Southern.

...I've always wondered how much 'resistance' Chattanooga (a.k.a. UTC) would get from the UT system on moving up... ...coming from a UAB fan, which should be self-explanatory... 03-banghead03-banghead03-banghead

Chattanooga was 1A Independent from 1978 to 1982. I don't think there is much resistence from P5 schools now. I think there are resistence from G5 schools, but why hand strong the top FCS schools with good football and basketball? The conferences went for markets instead of grabbing teams from FCS. Chattanooga and EKU could be good for football in the SBC along with Missouri State and Chattanooga for basketball. Lamar's baseball could help SBC as well.

We added in a way that establishes and reignites rivalries and filled gaps. We have 2 divisions of 7 in football that are well placed with one another.

Maybe C-USA should call up the 4 you listed instead since, you know, their conference is at 7 teams…
