Where is Memphis and Temple going to go? I guess Temple could go Indy for football and A-10 for basketball. Not sure there is a landing spot for Memphis (although they would be an intriguing add to Big East basketball).
Problem with Temple is that their brand really doesn't get anyone excited, even in Philly. In football it's a Penn State town. They may eventually land in a watered down ACC once that league implodes. Once Florida State, Clemson, UNC, UVA, etc. find their way out of that league and its GOR deal, things will get very interesting in these parts.
I love that the ACC is below the Mountain West
I know Temple isn't all that but it's a shame UConn, Rutgers, and Temple or Pitt aren't in the same conference. Perhaps Temple and UConn would be a package deal for an invite. As many speculate, we could both end up in the ACC lite, or should we say, Big East Football Conference. Hmm, that's not bad.
UConn - Rutgers had no history and that was shaping up to be a pretty good football rivalry until rutgers won the lottery. Maybe Temple isn't it, but UConn needs a somewhat local rivalry.
They'd still play us every year. Another thing is if it's a good fit for them.
That’s what I’m saying, I don’t believe they do want SMU.
