Could HBCUs be in play for new-look CAA?
« on: October 26, 2021, 03:26:21 PM »
The CAA is looking to expand and switch to a divisional format to save on travel. A few HBCUs could be in play.

That would be a terrible move for Howard. They aren't going to fund sports at that level. They would be 0 and whatever every year.

I don't see us in the MEAC 5-years from now...like it or loathe it.
The MEAC schools south of DC may go SWAC or Big South.

ya'll trippin' if ya'll think the caa will invite an hbcu to join their conference.  however, they might invite monmouth since monmouth is in their northern footprint.  robert morris might be an option too, but both of those schools have "very small" football stadiums...

They aren't funding it in the MEAC and are losing just the same.

As I recall you said something similar around 2015 when the conversation was about the possibility losing members? :nod:
