No inside information here, but Emory would be a good fit for the MEC as well. IF (again no inside information), the MEC brought on Bluefield State, that would give E&H four schools within 150 miles of them and would be a major step for the MEC to move to a N/S division break.

I'd like to see Guilford move up - old Lenoir-Rhyne rival and one of the founding members of the North State Conference. I love E&H from a football perspective (totally ignorant about their other sports), they're a proven D3 commodity with good tradition and would instantly move into the upper echelon of the SAC in terms of attendance. Good looking stadium and I believe they have a pretty large D3 marching band as well.

With Conference Carolinas, there's already a plan being laid out which would include some of the schools mentioned in this thread. They would also include North Greenville University, Barton, Chowan, UNCP and others. If this COVID-19 thing moves along, I believe there will be a full Conference Carolinas Football lineup by 2022.

My understanding is the goal for the number of SAC members is 14 and no more. It was mentioned during the press conference when Limestone announced joining the SAC. That means there is only one invitation left. Based on the hints in the other thread, the 14th member is a D3 VA football school. Since the SAC likes to keep a really tight footprint, Christopher Newport is probably not in consideration. I'm now believing it will be Emory & Henry.
