Memphis and Temple have been board favorites a long time . AFA is the New Guy!

IMO- Air Force is going to join soon..

The lingering questions are..


1. If the Big 12 will expand..

2. Regardless of the Big 12's Moves- Will the Big East go to 14..

Time will tell..

But Schools Like Temple, Fresno, ECU, Memphis, CSU, etc.. are positioning themselves..

I like the phrase “positioning themselves” unfortunately for Temple it’s more a matter of just sitting and waiting.

Yeah, I think a lot of schools are seeing the college landscape rapidly being divided into haves and have-nots. The Big East in a way is the last train for a lot of schools.

That said, should schools like ECU, USM, Fresno, Hawaii, which have athletically performed at a high level- Not get picked up and die protracted slow deaths in increasing obscurity- Such will be a major tragedy in American Sports.

Temple to is in a bit of pickle- But Ill say that they'll be in sooner or later. Regardless of Nova..

Hopefully the Big 12 Will Expand and the Big East will move to at least 14 so more schools can have their respective life-vests..

And I’m being nice to Mr. Steve even though we both know who knocked Temple out of the NCAA last year in the third round, in double overtime!

And I still say that was a bad call against Juan Fernandez at the end of regulation!

Congrats on the Big East!

Per Sports By Brooks, the Mtn Network may be going out of business if the the combined MWC-CUSA thing goes through.

I have been checking that out. It looks like it went down for good.

As you know Sergio, this didn't surprise me. That board (like some others we know of) are very fond of personal agendas. IMO, personal agendas is what destroyed that board.

I was at that game in Tucson. What was the call? I don't remember it at all.

PS...There were more than a few "odd" calls in that game as I think back. Very inconsistent.

What does this conversation have to do with whether AFA will join the Big East now or not?

I think you are right on the money Steve. Taking a quick glance at the MWCBoard- One can readily say that the Board has essentially degenerated to an open civil war between the departing schools and the Frontrange Schools. The Usual Suspects are at it again, and it appears that this is just the beginning..

PS Thanks for the First Positive Rep Btw
