The AP reports that Connecticut redshirt linemen Greg McKee has been arrested on child pornography charges.

McKee turned himself in to state authorities this morning.

He was expected to be charged today on charges of obscenity, importing child pornography and promoting a minor in an obscene performance.

The charges are a result of a seizure of McKee's computer equipment from his dorm room last month.

No other UConn football members are believed to be involved, but the investigation is ongoing.

According to the Boston Herald, several sources have mentioned that UMass is eyeing a move to FBS from FCS. The move to FBS would be provisional in 2011 and 2012, and full FBS status would be as of the 2013 season.

According to the sources, the Minutemen would join the Mid-American Conference (MAC) as a football-only member.

Should UMass join the MAC, they would be the second Atlantic 10 member in the conference. Temple has been a football-only MAC member since 2007.
