I get a sense of bad blood between the MEC and Shepherd, so I think the PSAC dropping Shepherd would be highly unlikely (if not absolutely stupid). But, crazier things have happened, I suppose.
If Shepherd got the boot from the PSAC, the MEC would be the likely landing place regardless of how Reid feels about it. Possible outside chance of the GMAC in that unlikely scenario.

Reid Amos (MEC Commish) is still quite butt hurt about Shepherd leaving. He's strongly discouraged any scheduling cooperation with Shepherd for OOC games to his conference members.

I actually suspect the PSAC will raid the MEC again in the somewhat near future.

What about Ottawa University? I'm sure they are pretty content in NAIA but would they be big enough to consider a D2 move? Admittedly I haven't followed them in many years so I don't know the state of their program currently. I know they recruit from the Wichita area quite a bit and theoretically them moving up would give the MIAA another school AND a reason to give Lincoln the boot.

Very true; however, now that Emory and Henry has moved up I wonder if we might see some other ODAC or USA South members try to move up in the NC/VA area. I know the SAC is pretty full now, but I could see the Conference Carolinas going after some of those D3 schools that currently sponsor football.
And as far as Conference Carolinas, idk. I'll believe it when I see it for conference Carolinas football. That's been nothing more than a potential rumor for 15 years it seems ya know?

Would Frostburg even want to join the PSAC? Have they shown interest in the past?
If the PASSHE schools did actually contract and couldn't get any new members, would they possibly drop Shepherd if it was the only way to even the numbers?
I doubt Shepherd gets dropped, both sides of the PSAC/Shepherd marriage appear to be happy with the early returns.
