A-10 adding Butler and VCU while losing Temple and Charlotte.  A-10 stronger after that trade.  CAA lost Georgia State, VCU and perhaps Old Dominion.  My guess is CAA looks at Liberty, Stoney Brook and Gardner Webb as schools that could be open to an upgrade.  Not sure if Southern Conference powers Davidson and College of Charleston would consider the CAA as an upgrade after the defections.  UNC Ashville and Belmont might be attractive teams to grab.

Old Dominion is also leaving the CAA, but for Conference-USA. 

The CAA is being totally decimated.
