The reason they won't join is the same reason they will never join CUSA. Their hoops and non revenue sports have a very enviable footprint and demographic.

I had a problem with this until the recent contract changes and the addition of UMass

We all had a problem with it but the problem was with the MAC, not Temple. Temple hadno incentive to bring any other teams on board. With UMass the football thing balances out for the moment-I still prefer teams to be all-in but $ talks and no one listens to anything else these days.

They always have the best recruits, best facilities, best alumni, best everything and still have yet to even win a division says it all. That our conference threw them a life preserver and helped them out in a deal that helped them far more than it did the MAC and they treat us like they're just going to step on us and then move onto brighter days is ridiculous.


This has been going on for 7 long... years 05-nono

Like in most things reality is in the middle. Some non-Temple fans are holding grudges more than they should be and some Temple fans treat the MAC and their fans poorly. Sadly the worst of both sides tend to color perceptions more than the middle.

Yes all of that has been that long. Look no further than the front page of threads in this forum for all of that with the exception of arrogantly asking for directions to the MAC title game, which I'm sure will pop up again soon.
