C-USA (takes MVC name)
NDSU, SDSU, UNI, Drake*, Bradley*, LTU, Missouri State
Valparaiso*, Indiana State*, WKU, MTSU, Evansville*, Illinois State, SIU
Football only: UTEP, NMSU, FIU

With the original MVC gone, the OVC holds on to Belmont and Murray State. The MVFC adds WIU as a full member, plus Indiana State and Youngstown State for football only:

OVC
North - SIUE*, WIU, EIU, USI*, Morehead State*, Lindenwood
South - Murray State, UTM, Belmont*, TN State, TN Tech, SEMO
Football only (North): Indiana State, Youngstown State

The Summit adds UALR. UND and USD join the WAC for football only.
