Purple & Gold Welcomes ETSU, Mercer, & VMI to the SoCon

We welcome  East Tennessee State, Mercer University and Virginia Military Institute into the Southern Conference as full members today (July 1).

The addition of these three institutions brings the Southern Conference’s membership to 10 schools for the 2014-15 academic year. Ten members playing basketball, and nine (in 2016) playing football.  We now have 10 members who actually want to be in the SoCon, the home of both athletic and academic excellence.

The membership for the conference will be as follows: The Citadel, East Tennessee State, Furman, Mercer, UNCG, Samford, Chattanooga, VMI, Western Carolina and Wofford.
