No!
Temple has made a major turn around in their program but they are not B-12 material. They haven't even solved their stadium issues yet which involve future overpriced rent at the Linc, and trying to build an OCS in an area with no parking and no support from the city mayor, the faculty, or the local residents. Temple only averages 25k at their games years the don't play Penn State at the Linc too. Don't get me wrong I don't have anything against Temple and have family alumni and friends that graduated from that school, and even attend some of their games at the Linc, but there are far better candidates in the AAC to choose from then Temple for B-12 expansion if the B-12 ever expands at all and pooches AAC teams in the process.

Can't believe that the b12 wouldn't want to expand into Florida with UCF and USF.
