Our new AD had better have a golden horseshoe of some sort. I'd rather GW be in a D2 or D3 conference with competent leadership as opposed to the Big South and buffoon Kallander.

I don't suppose the continued expansion of the CAA puts a little pressure on the SoCon to expand, too? Though my guess is that they'd prefer another public school if they add, it's hard to argue our fit with the likes of Mercer, Samford, and even Wofford and Furman.
Not that I think anyone would be terribly excited by our addition.

HPU will be next to the CAA. They didn't build that multi-million dollar arena to stay in a bush league.

The Southern makes sense but I don't think they want us like they do some other big time public university that helps them compete against the CAA!!

You would almost hope, and hope is a strong word here on this, but you would hope if the Southern Conference does expand through realignment they would take us and maybe Charleston Southern in. If that were the case and I know there are lot of flaws with what I am saying, but if that even was the case then we would have WCU, Wofford, and VMI back again as let's say traditional rivals!! Charleston Southern would have Wofford, Furman, and let's say Mercer as traditional rivals. In a perfect world it would make sense but I am sure you can find 100 people to debate that or debunk that one!!!
