Not too much said here, but read the second question about going "straight Division I". Does such a thing exist? Thought it was Div I-A and I-AA in football :eyebrow:

Q: Do do you expect to add new members to the conference?

A: I'm not able to comment on that. We have not made a decision yet. Winston Salem has applied. So has Savannah State University, and N.C. Central has expressed written interest.

Q: There is talk about the MEAC leaving Division I-AA football and going straight Division I. Can you comment on that?

A: That's not true. That originated from comments made for a Q&A I had with a local newspaper here [in Virginia]. What I indicated is we are investigating all of our options, and if there was enough financial resources on the table, then we would have to consider it.
