UNCC #23 small FB Stadium but pro stadium
UAB #43 building new stadium
ODU #44 small stadium
UB #52 also pro stadium
MARSHALL #70 38K stadium
TOLEDO #71 Glass Bowl
All things considered unless we can get 1 or more of Army BYU BSU or CSU I go with UAB. They are in it to win it with a new $175 million stadium and #43 TV.
No to any of the above. They do nothing to move the needle. We have enough welfare cases in this conference.

I still like Marshall, Dayton, and VCU
East: Cincinnati, Temple, Marshall, ECU, USF, UCF
West: Memphis, Navy, Tulsa, Tulane, Houston, SMU
Basketball: Conference tournament is moved to Ohio. Cincinnati and Dayton alternate each year. Cincinnati, Dayton, Marshall, Memphis, VCU, and Wichita State fans combine to help make the conference tournament look like a real important sporting event instead of a summer league open gym. Cincinnati and Dayton would be local, Marshall would be close. Memphis, VCU, and Wichita State would be the next likely to travel. Get the conference tournament out of Florida and Texas as those fan bases do not care about college basketball.
What my plan does is gut the A-10, grabs C-USA's most loyal fan base, and brings the geography together. We actually don't need another high level football team. Cincinnati, UCF, Houston, USF, and Memphis have that covered. The conference does need games in football and basketball where visiting fans can actually travel to. Marshall, VCU, and Dayton solves this problem by bringing the eastern wing closer together.
