I like it. If we take a hard negotiating stance, I'll bet we could score a media contract worth thousands.

If the plans for LSU-Shreveport and NW State, Louisiana to merge? You may need to replace LSU-Shreveport with another school. SE Oklahoma State or Southern Arkansas to take their place.

Tempting, but they'd have to buy the rights to the name: http://www.conferencecarolinas.com/landing/index
Figure a case of RC and Moon Pies should cover it.

The last thing North Carolina needs is another FBS team. My goodness it would suck for ECU if Western Carolina was....I shudder at the thought

Elon seems to be on a trajectory for bigger things like FBS, not Western Carolina. ETSU is much more likely too, eventually.

WCU has a tiny endowment and is not accessible. At least Elon is right next to Greensboro. Elon has ambitions, as shown by its move to the CAA, and a new expandable stadium.
But if North Carolina got another FBS team, think it would be UNC-Wilmington, but far in the future.

RE: Realignment Possibilities 6/12
The secret is out. If any of the B12 expansion candidates had pitched global warming and CO2 emissions they would be in the B12 today. Instead they wasted all that time on history, success, academics and demographics.
