Would be ideal.

No need to go over 12 or take multiple moveups

I would love this, but I also understand the desire for another eastern school.

I would love to see Missouri State and NMSU as full invites and okay with adding Massachusetts as football only to help balance the two divisions with an eastern school...so should it be luke-warm JMU who has shown a lack of committment or Liberty who is doing everything they can to sway the SBC vote in their favor or EKU who also is showing more interest than JMU.

Quoting myself from earlier in this thread:

Some are taking JMU's foot-dragging way too personally. This is not a wedding proposal in which the askee asks for time to think it over because they always assumed they would do better. This is a business decision with a lot of people to satisfy.

App State's fans (some) and administration openly sneered at the prospect of joining the SBC when they thought CUSA was about to pop the question. Now they look to be a solid and supportive addition to the conference
