Tuesday---July 5, 2011

Matty V. has more on the Temple-is-leaving-the-MAC rumor. Note that if the Owls leave the MAC, UMass has a reduced leaving penalty. People have been telling me UMass goes where Temple goes in order to maximize the Boston-Philly market leverage.

The Agganis All-Star game will be July 14th. At least one player will be playing, and will be attending UMass, but without any connection to football.

Josh Buchanan has a preseason All-American team up. Tyler Holmes is the only Minuteman to make any of the teams.

"Eagle in Atlanta" ranks UMass as #8 in importance in BC's 2011 schedule.
