With the lengthy thread regarding So Con expansion, and the PL looking for one or more new all-sports members, what do posters (and especially VMI fans) think of this option?

What kind of academic and reputation credentials does VMI have? I think that will be of great importance to the members of the league when considering any expansionOriginally Posted by Go...gate
I think it's a possibility. The tie in with Navy and Army would seem to make it more attractive. It would be a haul though from a travel perspective. Trying to get from Lexington, Va to Hamilton, NY or Worcester, MA in the winter would be interesting. I think they are a viable option.
Temple B.B.A., DePaul M.Ed., Kansas State Ph.D. (in progress) & Lehigh Blood! Go Mountain Hawks!
I've talked about this on my blog before. Personally I think it's a good fit, but I don't think VMI would go anywhere unless they're pushed. Yeah, it's a long road trip to some of the schools, but Bucknell and Georgetown (and Navy in non-fb sports) aren't far away.
Would Georgetown be the closest school to VMI?
Yes, I think so. There is also Annapolis, not far away from DC.
I forget about Army and Navy.
I think that if the PL opens up for scholarships VMI would be a no-brainer. However, I'm not sure that VMI would view a non-scholarship move as acceptable. No real facts, just my impression based on knowing some VMI alumni.
I think the PL should stay the way it is. It got it right kicking out Towson.
Agreed. Unless it is a very good fit, don't force the square peg into the round hole.
