If there were an A-10 Football Conference

TEAM. OCC Current Conf. Field Capacity
Duquesne 9-4 NEC. 2,200
Rhode Island 6-5 CAA. 6,580
Dayton. 6-5 Pioneer. 11,000
Davidson 6-5 Pioneer. 6,000
Richmond 4-7 CAA. 8,700
Fordham. 2-9 Patriot. 7,000

VCU Club. 3,250
George Mason Club. 5,000

St. Louis. Potential- 6,500
LaSalle. Potential- 7,500

Valparaiso 2-9 Pioneer 5,000. Good add for basketball too

Requirements- A-10 members or potential members of similar philosophy. Stadiums should potentially seat 5,000. Duquesne would have to play a game or two at Highmark and VCU certainly has the resources to add.

It wouldn't make sense for Richmond or Rhode Island to leave the CAA. The CAA is a power FCS conference. Cool idea but not realistic. Our goal should be to keep improving the program in hopes of moving into a better conference. This means winning the NEC virtually every year. We also need the renovations to Rooney to actually be nice.

Rhode Island actually submitted application to join the NEC three years ago since they wanted to downsize. A chance to join a better A10 would be attractive to them. If VCU starts a team And joins, Richmond will follow.

This would be a pretty good conference.
