Re: Derek Redd reports Shepherd is leaving the MEC after next year
With Shepherd and Wise leaving, the impending departure of Urbana and Notre Dame there doesn't appear to be much future for the MEC. If saving the MEC is bringing back ABU, DE, Salem and Bluefield we could be the worst conference in D2 by far. I'm really surprised politics never got involved and keep Shepherd in the MEC since it is a state school and with them leaving the whole MEC which is mostly made up of WV state schools will be effected. Their departure is certainly not good and other than Frostburg there doesn't appear to have any worthy potential members.
