A Cleavland writer says the MAC hopes to use UMass as some leverage on Temple.

This writer says the Big East was not interested in UMass. That's not surprising, given our current status. If we were a successful FBS program, then that could change.

A Syracuse blogger logs in about UMass joining the Big East. He bases his thoughts on Villanova accepting the bid to join Big East football. Problem is, I think they won't...

I also predict that the Big East will split again in the future with the football schools leaving the Catholic basketball schools. That would be the time for UMass to make a bid for the football Big East, if we were in FBS.
