I was listening to the Temple game on the radio and they said the game against SMU starts at 8pm. Did Harry get this wrong or was it changed? Everything else says 7

Our own stadium gives us cost certainty. With the Eagles they would renegotiate every four or five years!

JDC: Is the Berwick High School DE/OLB still a grayshirt for 2015?

does anyone know the status on him?

Just booked my hotel room in Hartford for the American men's basketball championship. Not bad ... about $140 per night.

JDC or Kyle... How about an update ?
2 critical games coming up this week.

Per Sleeper Athletes on Twitter. Would leave us with only one FL commit (until Sekai Lindsay hopefully)

Can anyone explain why is he still on the bench in his new role? Did I miss something?

Anyone know if the John Chaney documentary is still going to happen? Haven't heard anything for a while...

This is one ugly game so far. Bond looked horrible as does the rest of the team.

According to the linked article below, Galette is rooming in a New Orleans suburb with former Temple teammate Terrance Banks; who is Galette's cousin.

The article also reports that Galette was kicked off the Temple team back in the late 2000's, in part, because another visiting cousin stole a laptop while visiting him on campus. I always wondered what happened with Galette. I'll never forget him soaring over an opponent to block a punt. The guy was destined for athletic success.

Well, it appears that Galette and a cousin are once again in trouble. According to a police report, a woman victim made the following statement about Galette and Banks "They was both on me and I couldn't breathe. I couldn't fight both of them."

We have one bad loss so far that could come back to haunt us, the St. Joe's game. Yes, the team that is currently predicted to end up at 180 in the RPI just lost to 250 RPI Duquesne. We do have the Morgan factor working in our favor to somewhat mitigate that loss. But what we need to avoid is another bad loss. That means we can't lose to any of USF, E. Carolina, Houston and our other game versus UCF. I still think we need to finish in the top 3 of the conference and win at least 22 games to be on the right side of the bubble. Definitely doable but that means going at least .500 against UConn, SMU, Cincy, Tulsa and Memphis. The next 3 games are really big for us, this is the toughest 3 game stretch we face the rest of the way.

This Temple team is sometimes very hard to watch with balls clanking of the rim and seeing halves where they shoot 20% . It is very ugly . It clearly reminds me of some of the John Chaney teams [ in fact most of the John Chaney teams ] that couldn't hit the ocean while standing on the waters edge . This team is resurrecting the same old Chaney like formula .

Play great defense , don't turn the ball over , shoot half decently from the line and close out games . They are doing it playing 95% of the time in a man to man and they can because they have ten playable players . Chaney did it playing 95% zone and didn't have the bench .

The games are like watching kids throwing paint at a canvas and it looks ugly but it finally turns into a Picasso . Same formula !!!

11 seed vs UNI in Jacksonville

Placed above the last four in and the last 4 with a bye.

They take a hit. Kuran Iverson career there can be over. Suspended.

It's less than a month away. Any surprises that Matt Rhule has up his sleeve?

They average 13,12,and11 per game Also make 3,s will be a tough game!

Carr would obviously be a much better option.

Did I miss it? If so, I never received an email about it. If it hasn't occurred yet, anyone hear anything about it?

As long as we're posting inflammatory updates I just thought it might be worth noting that the hack that so many love to compare unfavorably to Dunphy currently has the Johnnies sitting at 11-1 and ranked #17 in the country with their only loss being a very respectable setback to Gonzaga. Just sayin...

the most fun/exciting Temple team I've watched in quite a while. Great defense, fast paced offense, great guard play, low post scoring. I know it's only been 5 games with this team, but I'm really excited for the rest of the year.
