is headquartered in Philadelphia. There are a lot of big names in the company that are loyal to Temple. Not saying it's enough to get Temple in, but the media giant is very powerful.

Hey, if the Big 12 can call themselves Big 12 while only having 10 then anything

It is the Big 12 (with 10 teams). I wouldn't expect anything else.

Temple: The team was so bad for the Big East that they kicked them out

But they had one good season and they're in the northeast, so hey maybe they're worth a shot.

Sorry...Comcast has no seat at the table...their opinion is uninvited
