Why, because during the interview, he basically said he wanted to help keep the MEAC together. So if anything happens, it's more likely to be partnerships until both the ASUN and MEAC expand. On the MEAC side, they could find someone to secure AQ spots and geography. On the ASUN side, they would have to find football schools to start sponsoring football.

So, the ASUN could drop their affiliation with the Big South for football, and the MEAC could partner with the ASUN for football.

Yea, I don't think he actually wants to take three or four MEAC schools, I think he wants to use the threat of taking three or four MEAC schools to take over the entire MEAC as a pooled conference office. You can then run two legally separate 8- or 9-school conferences as functional divisions of one umbrella group, but with double the NCAA auto-bids.
