Temple, Boise State, and Central Florida Rumored to Be Headed to Big East

Before everyone writes off the Big East as a major conference anymore, the conference has been exploring new schools to head join as Football and Basketball schools. Temple, Boise State, and central Florida have all been in talks with Big East officials about mending the gaping hole Syracuse and Pitt will leave once everything is all said and done. The biggest lock to be joining the conference is Central Florida, who has been in exclusive talks with officials about leaving Conference USA. The only snag has been that only the football officials have been talking even though basketball is rumored to be joining as well. The addition of Temple would be a big boost for The Big East who needs another solid basketball power to fit in to the conference. Boise State would also be a nice addition as a football school and front the publicity of the conference as a perennial football power.
