Message: [QUOTE="billsin01, post: 30598, member: 837"] While we all take comfort in our alignment with an established "power conference," it is worth noting (again) that Temple has legitimately thrived since being expelled from the BE (which no one ever mentions as when destroying tradition to make money). And can someone please explain to me how Temple fails to deliver the Philly market yet BC "delivers" Boston or Cuse/Uconn/RU "deliver" NYC? Or USF or even Miami deliver the south florida market? Notre Dame delivers a market. Duke/UNC and the traditional acc schools combined deliever the mid-atlantic. The SEC schools deliver their markets, to some degree. But believe me, if we're closer to "delivering" the NYC market than Temple is to "delivering" the philly market, it's not by much. That said, it's not a bad thought but in reality it's absurd b/c college commisioners and presidents don't look further than the next TV contract. [/QUOTE]
