OVC doesn't have to expand.

They have 10 all sports, 7 Football

No need to panic, or add schools that don't add value.

Men’s tennis is under the AQ mark and football would be at six (the minimum) if Austin Peay were to leave. Not an ideal situation for football to be at six particularly a relatively cash strapped league. Ask the Southland which is playing a round robin and a half in football

They are already at 5 in Men's Tennis

If Austin Peay leaves, that changes the equation. I don't see the advantage of leaving a compact 10-team league for a far flung 14 team league. The Eastern Division would lessen that impact some, but decreases chances of making the tournament.
