I always thought that they had the most potential to succeed in the G5 while in the SoCon, that includes both App and GS. Great city with a large population that could easily support the program, and a stadium that is already G5 ready, they could easily get the seating capacity to 30,000 with minimal effort and money compared to other schools that have made the move up
I once thought the same thing until I got to know some of their fans. Chattanooga is Big Orange Country.

There are some good reasons not to add UTC, but I don't think not having baseball is one. No need to bring in a makeshift baseball program when we've just added Coastal, UTA, and GS.
Baseball is an important sport in this league so yes they need to add it. If they add it now they could be up to respectable by the time we actually need a new school.

RE: UTC and the Sun Belt eyeing each other?
So, hypothetically IF UTC got an invitation, that makes 11 football schools, whose #12 ?
Jacksonville State, a good rival for UTC,
The Citadel, in state for CCU, and an old SoCon foe,
Good ole Mo State, to balance out the conference
or EKU.

While I think UTC may have missed their window, I think if SB went to 12 Football, JMU would be the other team. I actually think offering them Football Only may not be a bad idea get to 12 teams and add to very good regional teams. However, I doubt the 10 teams will be willing to share CFP money.

Agree with this. JMU and UTC would be excellent additions (assuming UTC can keep/improve on their current ways with their new HC. When App and GaSouthern were in the Socon Huesman (or whatever his name is) made Chatty a regular for the top 3 or 4 in the conference.

I feel like that's true of most FBS teams in that they own the market of their respective city but lose their grasp beyond that. We own the Statesboro/Bulloch market (~80k people) and are a major name in Savannah too (~300k people)
