SKyW currently does HSV on the American side, while that could switch tomorrow for now though that means you will probably have Jumpseat priority to ord. 2 hours isn't too far to commute. A commuters +1 for the CRJ is the ability to look at the American loads out of HSV to plan your commute to ord.
DTW would be fine but then you are down to one major airline offering direct.
ENDV out of ATL (is the base open yet?) should hold value to you in your decision as it is drivable. I'd drive the 3 hours to ATL almost every time.
