[URL unfurl="true"]https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/american-to-review-expansion-candidates-after-six-conference-usa-teams-apply-for-membership[/URL] The ACC is going to need to expand isn't it? Or risk losing Notre Dame to SEC or more likely the Big 10? or is the answer the single conference (no divisions)? I know someone mentioned Coastal Carolina (Sun Belt) and that Duke, UNC, and NC State won't let that happen (and or East Carlolina). What about (Sunbelt) GaSouthern or Texas State (not really close/easy travel). Rice (Conf USA) is a nerd school in HOU but they SUCK at everything and applied for the AA expansion. Or is this just a football and TV Rights play? I also heard on the D1 pod cast they're opening up the option for conferences to expand baseball scholarships to 20-24 from 11.7 and pay additional coaches. The issue is they're leaving it up to the conferences? The haves will further the divide....from the have nots....
