I get what your saying..Belmont has lost 15 str8 games n do not appear to have a clear cut winnable game yet they will remain in their conference...those schools you listed have the resources..North side went from winning couple games to being a contender..middle of the pack n bottom teams usually are cyclical..I'm all about expanding the conference if needed..being fwcs oriented though I don't see them totally disbanding anytime soon.
