But let's say several of the other football schools leave and the conference basically falls apart (which is doubtful). With a nucleus of Wichita State, VCU, and UD I don't think we would have any problem attracting some of the best "mid-majors" around. Some on here have even said UD should get some good mid-majors and start a new conference. This would be the perfect way to do that. Maybe we would end up with a conference similar to the A-10 but without the bottom feeders, which would make it better than what we have now. The Big East basketball schools weren't hurt one bit when the Big East broke up.

Really, the ACC could then raid the A10 for some of the better programs like Bonnie, RI,
Richmond and Davidson, and leave the bottom feeders to sulk in their misery.
