Temple hosted its first official visit weekend of the summer and some highly-touted recruits were on campus.

DeCarlos Young is listed as a 3-star linebacker by Rivals but is likely to end up on the offensive side of the ball in college. The 5-foot-11, 220-pound Young rushed for 1,395 yards and 25 touchdowns for Wise (MD) last year and has collected offers from schools like Michigan, Boston College and West Virginia.

Defensive end DeAngelo Bowden had 18 sacks for St. John's College (DC) last year, a performance that garnered him offers from schools like Arkansas, Pitt, USF, and Memphis.

Oregon safety transfer Collin Gill, originally a 3-star prospect from the DMV, is currently on campus for an official visit, OwlScoop.com has learned.

Gill redshirted this season but originally chose Oregon over offers from schools like Michigan, Missouri and Ole Miss.

Maybe this makes more sense than the current set up?

This week's episode will include part of my interview with Steve Settle, and I'll be talking later this morning with Philadelphia attorney Andrew Hope, who joined us on a previous episode, about the recent NCAA settlement that will redistribute revenue back to former athletes and what it means for the future and particularly for programs like Temple.

I hope you're all having a fun, happy and healthy Memorial Day weekend.

I thought I'd start a thread here in case anyone wanted to pay tribute to someone they're thinking of today who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces.

I talked to Steve for about 40 minutes yesterday. Among other things, he talked to me about how the Owls got their season turned around in March and why he's excited about the recent transfer portal additions.

You can listen to the full interview here.

Not our position of greatest need, but a possibility nonetheless (grad transfer).

Hey Scoop subscribers! If you listened to this week’s podcast, you heard we are kicking off a new series on the show where we will rank every food spot on campus (past or present) in a bracket. We introduced some of the places that could show up, but we need more!

Here are the places currently in the running:
Richie’s (Wall)
Richie’s Cafe
Maxi’s
Pub Webb
Bagel Hut
Bagel Shop
Nanu’s
Orient Express
Azteca
Eddie’s
Fame’s
Hank’s

If you have a place that you feel passionate about being in the running, let us know here! It can be a past or present place, but tell us why you feel it deserves to be in the tournament and what seed it should be ranked.

We will have a Selection Wednesday segment on the podcast this week where we will release the bracket, and you will also get to vote on each matchup as the rounds progress.

See you Wednesday!

It's obviously been a hectic time for the football program along the recruiting front, with Collin Vaughn committing and then de-committing in the span of a week. There should be another verbal on the way, and we'll discuss the roster, staff, recruiting and anything else you'd like to put on the agenda.

Temple is currently hosting former UCLA quarterback Kaijya Hollawayne, who has spent the last two seasons converting to a wideout, OwlScoop.com has learned.

Hollawayne originally signed with the Bruins as a member of the Class of 2021 and redshirted his first season underneath Chip Kelly. Hollawayne then transferred to Grambling State, where he didn't win the starting quarterback job, and switched to wide receiver midway through the season. After switching positions, Hollawayne caught five passes over a six-game stretch before deciding to do a year of JUCO ball at Riverside City College in California.

With Riverside, Hollawayne caught 22 passes for 425 yards and three touchdowns, including an 85-yard performance in the playoffs against a Mt. SAC team that featured current Temple linebacker Katrin Suprenant. The 6-foot-4, 210-pound Hollawayne is a big play threat, as his 19.3 yards per catch average would have led the conference if he had met the minimum catch criteria.
