What about Chattanooga olympic sports and Liberty FB Only? That would serve to keep the footprint tight in olympic sports while also picking up that 12th school in football. Liberty FB Only might sit better with presidents than an all sport invite.

I know Missouri State probably brings the most to the table but they aren't going to help balance out the Eastern schools.

UTC is not interested in moving.

This balance out in the East is overblown. App wants a travel partner...but App probably isn't going to get what they want because the rest of us would prefer a strong program.

We spent 40 years in the SoCon. We're used to it.

Its nothing against you guys. If a UTC or JMU was ready and willing, this wouldn't be a discussion. The problem is they are not, so our options are not exactly the greatest in the world. Meanwhile, you've got a West team with strong Olympic sports flirting with the SBC after snubbing our advances for years.

It changes things.

Who is the West team that's has such strong Olympic sports? MSU hasn't been to the NCAA tourney in basketball in 15 years. They have a rich history, but 15 years is a long time. MSU baseball is 8-11 this year dropping 3 straight to Dallas Baptist. Liberty is 17-6 on the year. Football averages less than 9,000. Really?? All common sense would say JMU or Liberty.
