Temple to the MAC?

Adding Temple would be huge even for just football. If Temple can get healthy playing in a weak MAC East they may be able to bring fans back in Philly. My only concern is if they do get healthy by playing in the MAC will they stay?

i would think it hard for them to go back to the Big east.... the conf. that gave them the heave-ho. And the other football confs. probably wouldnt take them either. PLUS I would like to think they never became so dominate that they moved on. If BG, toledo, Miami hasnt done it yet, then I would seriously doubt Temple could do it anytime soon.

Why, we already have UB, which is a better school, and sounds better than the Hoot'n Nannies at Temple. Or the Combine jockies from OK.

I think the future for the MAC and other football prgrams is in the form of schedule agreements, not full expansion, at least not at first.

If Temple does want to play in the MAC, let them do so in the east.

Temple can beat UB, Kent, EMU, and maybe Akron, CMU, and BSU (on a good day.)

They can't beat BG, UT, Miami, NIU, WMU, OU. It may not be too bad a deal for them. However it doesn't do much for the MAC.
