Does the Sun Belt have any interest to expand to 16 members

or is it content to remain at 14 members? If the Sun Belt has no desire to expand, then ECU's only options are:

1. Remain in the AAC;
2. See if it can join Conference USA;
3. See if it can join another conference;
4. Form a new conference with several other schools; or
5. Decide to become an Independent.

I think all conferences are watching the SEC -- Millpoint 01/08/2022 07:20AM

Given that Navy is only a football-only member, I doubt Army -- VTHokie2000 01/06/2022 3:51PM

And academically speaking, Navy/Army won't do any better than the Patriot -- HokieToph 01/06/2022 4:59PM

Exactly, so I don't see either school leaving the Patriot League. -- VTHokie2000 01/06/2022 5:27PM

Patriot League = exactly where W&M belongs. -- BAMRising 01/07/2022 08:35AM

It will be interesting to see what W&M does next. I know the CAA -- VTHokie2000 01/07/2022 08:40AM
