In discussing the addition of UNC Charlotte to the 2013 and 2014 football schedules, Coastal Carolina athletics director Hunter Yurachek suggested that the two-year home-and-home contract might only be the start of the programs' meetings on the field.
"I know a lot of the Big South schools are scheduling Charlotte right now, and honestly we'd have an interest as a conference in trying to lure Charlotte into the Big South as a football member," Yurachek said earlier this week.
"So we're trying to get them more engaged in our conference. It's not a mandate from the Big South that we do this, but I know that there's several Big South schools that have reached out to them and we have a definitive interest in seeing if they're interested in joining the Big South as a football program."

Can anyone name who?
--We hear that football isn't in the immediate plans of Anderson University.
--We hear Appalachian (UNC-Tweetsie) is definitely leaving the FCS SoCon within 3 years as a new FBS, conference affiliation presently undetermined. We hear that Coastal Carolina is poised to replace Appy once the announcement becomes official. This will put the Big South FCS in a major bind since Liberty (Jerry Falwell University) is also planning a move to FBS and Stony Brook's membership is considered temporary.
--We hear that Big South commissioner Kyle Kallander has been courting UNC-Charlotte athletic Director Judy Rose. The UNC-C ninners will begin recruiting their first football team this fall and will begin play in 2013. Rose and UNC-C have indicated that they would only use FCS membership short term as a stepping stone to FBS.
--Kallander has also been seen in the company of Pembroke's AD Dan Kenney recently. Could Pembroke be planning on joining fellow UNC system member Charlotte in the Big South?
-- Speaking of Pembroke we have also heard that Coach Shinnick is on the list for another D-1 job besides the UNC-C position.
