Temple is back in the Big East. "Exceptional, extraordinary: All those words apply," said Temple's athletic director Bill Bradshaw. How did Temple go from 0-11 in 2005 to Big East member in 2012? The turnaround is nothing short of miraculous, a modern-day "Rocky" story. Much of the credit goes to Bradshaw. Temple has come to embody everything Philadelphia represents. The Owls are tough. They are proud. They are survivors.
