The Temple Owls have been telling recruits for almost a year that they're going to soon make a return to the Big East. So now that it's time to go ahead and take the leap, Temple officials are going to have a meeting to talk about whether the school should actually make a return to the Big East. CSNPhilly.com reports:
Temple Meeting Wednesday About Big East Invitation, According To Report
Temple University’s Board of Trustees will meet via conference call Wednesday afternoon to discuss the fate of the school’s athletic program and perhaps accept an invitation to become a member of the Big East Conference in all sports.
Temple was a member of the Big East until 2004, when it was shooed away due to its football program. Since then, it has put together a real, live MAC powerhouse. If Temple was to rejoin, it would be for all sports and for the 2012-2013 seasons, which would patch the hole in the Big East's schedule left by the departure of the West Virginia Mountaineers.
