Sun Belt was very interested in FAMU... until they opened their books and just like that the interest was gone. Similar to what happened with Eastern Kentucky.
I wonder if the SBC still want Chattanooga? Seems they might be able to make the move now. When they were asked the first time, they did not have the money to go.
I think schools like Bethune-Cookman, Southern U. and Tennessee State seemed to be able to compete against FBS schools. FLorida A&M do show up times. I also think North Carolina A&T might be able to make a jump to FBS as well.
Alabama State on the other hand have an FBS size stadium. Why have a stadium that size to be at FCS?
Jackson State on the other hand needs a new zip code to get away from SWAC. They are the only team that is smack dab in the SBC where SBC do not have a presence in.
Here is what I think.
Florida A&M to the A-Sun
Tuskegee to the A-Sun
Alabama State to the A-Sun
Bethune-Cookman to the A-Sun
Jackson State to the southland
Southern to the Southland
Texas Southern to the A-Sun
Prairie View to the Southland'
North Carolina Central to the Big South
North carolina A&T to the Big South
I could see Bowie State and Virginia State move up to the Big South.
Albany State to the A-Sun
Alabama A&M drop to D2
South carolina State D2
Howard D2
Norfolk State D2
Coppin State to Big South
Maryland-ES drop to D2.
UAPB drops to D2 GAC conference and Tech replaces them in D1.
Delaware State drops to D2
Morgan State D2
Grambling State D2
Alcorn State D2
Mississippi Valley State D2
Too bad Edddie robinson is not with us anymore. Grambling state was the school to be feared of. Won more games in D1 than joe Pa and Booby Bowden.
