The two twelve-team conferences on your diagram make more sense than your proposal, respectfully. If two teams get added I think would more likely shake out like this:

League A
North: UMass*, UConn*, Marshall, ODU, MTSU, WKU, App. State.
South: Charlotte, Coastal, Ga. State, Ga. Southern, FIU, FAU, Troy.

*FB only, UMass and UConn guarantee a certain number of MBB and WBB non-conference games per year against League A teams.

League B
East: UAB, USA, USM, La. Tech, Arkansas State, Rice.
West: Louisiana, ULM, N. Texas, Texas State, UTSA, UTEP.

League B setup avoids having La. Tech in a division with the in-state schools it can’t get along with. You could also swap La. Tech and ASU into the West and put ULM and Louisiana in the East if you wanted to. Keeping Rice in the East gives the Alabama and Mississippi schools a recruiting hook in Houston.

If we entertain the notion that Liberty and NMSU football would add value sufficient to warrant admission, which I think is a huge if, then it would shake out like this if we’re ever to happen:

League A
North: UMass*, UConn*, Marshall, ODU, Liberty, MTSU, WKU.
South: App. State, Charlotte, Coastal, Ga. State, Ga. Southern, FIU, FAU.


League B
East: Troy, UAB, USA, USM, La. Tech, Arkansas State, Rice.
West: Louisiana, ULM, N. Texas, Texas State, UTSA, UTEP, NMSU.
