I say it because I'm not confident there always is a need for the independent group, and that maybe, someday, it might be best for CAA to have its own thing. It hasn't been easy for CAA to have its own football-fielding members to populate and remain in CAAF. And even though CAAF is a separate entity, it's enough of an incentive for others to want.

There isn't. The A10 should focus on being the basketball version of the AAC. Adding UNCW and Charleston would shore up their southern wing and unite virtually all the quality basketball first/only schools south of DC

The CAA could then focus on being a solid FCS mid atlantic league while the American East can continue to focus on the Northeast, better aligning it's schools as non football schools as the only football schools remaining will be 2

Its possible, but unlikely that UNCW is really high on the A-10's radar at this point. Its possible, but unlikely. I think it depends on where any departures would come from. If they lose Dayton and St Louis, they might .... do nothing.

Hofstra, Manhattan, Siena, BU or Northeastern are probably higher on the list than UNCW.
