"History shows the A-10 will be prepared to make moves. It hit for a better average than the Big East when it came to adding schools. A-10 losses, however, eventually might include Massachusetts, since the Big East group that includes Temple is a natural fit for the Minutemen now that they have upgraded to FBS and are doing what Temple used to do, play A-10 hoops and Mid-American football. The Owls have to hope UMass joins them."
