Make sure you're checking out the front page as we'll have daily content throughout this week leading up to Saturday's season opener against Virginia Tech. Also included in this introduction is an analysis video from our "Boston" Sam. Make sure you check it out, he did a really nice job with it.

NFL starting quarterback.

Here is an article on the back and forth between Clemson and FSU with their game being cancelled this past weekend....

Evan Boozer. Well done, Mr. Boozer.

I simply can't believe how many "Owls" are saying we should just quit.

That's not the Temple Tuff I know. Perseverance Conquers.

Our players are at minuscule risk of Wu Flu, being healthy, young people.

They want to play, and are showing guts and grit. They should be making us proud. These are men who are often at a severe size, age, and skill disadvantage, but are still out there battling in supremely difficult circumstances. Calling for them to surrender does nothing to support their admirable efforts.

Fight it out until the end, just like our players are.

If you want a great inside look at Walker's training, his training coaches have documented the process along the way.

Nate gave great insight about his summer training as well as a breakdown of a few of Temple's newest additions. You can read the full story here.

Noteworthy here because he's the son and namesake of the former Temple defensive tackle.

Did they say what Re-al Mitchell's injury is? Can't Readus Defensus?

Dartmouth transfer Brendan Barry will be our guest on The Scoop this week. We're recording the football portion of the podcast today, the basketball portion tomorrow with Barry and then releasing the podcast tomorrow afternoon so we can talk to him and also bring you some audio from tomorrow's media availability, which will include Dre Perry, most likely J.P. Moorman or Jake Forrester and hopefully one of the newcomers.

So if you have questions for Barry or for us as a staff, post your question here and we'll answer it on the podcast.

Guessing those of us with Season Tickets will each be getting avcall from our inside ticket contact . . . . . . hopefully soon.

The American conference ads are more inspiring than the Temple ads. What the hell has happened to us? No President. No AD. Brandless. The city pushes us around. I don't think I've ever been less proud to be a Temple Owl.

A team spokesperson confirmed to OwlScoop.com that Anthony Russo will not be available for tonight's game against UCF due to being in the COVID-19 protocol. Re-al Mitchell will start in his place and true freshman Matt Duncan will be the team's second string quarterback.
