I still think the smart move is for Elon, W&M, COC and UNCW to work together. The SoCon works well in that scenario. Honestly, I don't see anything else out there that works at all. The Sunbelt was a move for JMU football. It likely won't be super beneficial for any of their other sports and the costs increase. It was a move for FBS football and (G5 at that). Most of the teams that have made the jump for football face a reality of not reaching the P5 level and not getting the financial windfall they hoped. But, at least they have some level of stability. The CAA is not stable at this point. While I have enjoyed the basketball and baseball games with Hofstra and Northeastern, the long term viability is uncertain. Clearly, there is more support for football in the South. So, for most of the schools, it comes down to deciding do they value football or basketball more.

Delaware and William & Mary most certainly DO control the future of this league at this point. Everyone else is just along for the ride until the game of musical chairs ends.

Care to expound upon why you think that?
