What’s the deal. No Anderson?
Smith still on admin leave?

Wow. At 100 with 2 minutes remaining

Anyone else having issues the last couple days. Get error message. Security error.
App works fine.

Since he seems to be the last primary college writer left at the Inquirer (and has had many stories and opinions on Temple), figured this was news.

I don't know what to think of this game. Drexel is looking for respect 1st year in the Big 5 and would love a win vs Temple - but nobody else seems to care about the Big 5 anymore. DAC should be very loud and i gotta imagine the players come out w intensity.

Dragons have a very nice team but haven't looked good their first 2 games. Owls are dogs by 3.5

Gotta stop the bleeding on any Drexel runs but who is our go to scorer? Who guards Williams? I really liked their PG Moore out of Archbishop Wood. Tough solid kid. Hope Hysier can keep him in check on D.

I have watched a lot of Temple basketball. And basketball in general. And there’s something different about this team.

The biggest difference IMO is that they play as a team. Not seeing any hero ball that plagued the end of the Dunphy era and the McKie era.

Most refreshing Temple basketball I’ve watched probably since 2013.

Adam Fisher is going to be a special coach. And I’m glad he’s at Temple. He’s from the area. And if we don’t screw things up, he could coach a very very long time. We have the facilities, the sleeping giant fan base, and the history to make it happen.

After 2 games, I’m buying the stock now because in a few years they’re gonna be real good!

...by 7.5 on DK and total sits at 64.5 points.

Temple and Over!

Also, +240 ML play!

If you haven't already, you can still catch last week's episode of The Scoop, which includes our interview with Elite High School Scouting's Ari Rosenfeld.

He believes the Owls are getting a very good player in Dillon Battie.

At the Palestra with Jay in the house....Hate to see it

Temple has received a verbal commitment from Bowie High School defensive end Sultan Badmus according to several sources familiar with his recruitment.

The 6-foot-4, 240-pound Badmus had offers from programs like Duke, Maryland, Army and Penn throughout his recruitment. He recently canceled a visit to Indiana.

With Badmus' verbal commitment and Dominic DeLuca's decision to decommit, Temple is at nine verbals for the 2024 class.

From the sources I've spoken with, I wouldn't expect much more than three or four more high school verbals from this class, and I would expect there to be much more of an emphasis on junior college and transfer portal recruiting the rest of the way.

Badmus, who camped with Temple this past summer, is expected to take his official visit next month.

Hello, everyone! I will be live tweeting Stan Drayton's press conference today at noon. If you want to follow live, here's my link: https://twitter.com/DeclanLandis.

Obviously, there is a lot to talk about after Temple's tough loss to USF Saturday. The Owls also play UAB this weekend for the first time in program history. You won't want to miss it.

I will post all of my tweets in this thread after, and the link to our YouTube video of the presser will be here as well.

Looks like we lost the NJ TE?

Statistically the worst defense in the nation with only 4 takeaways. I can’t remember a temple team where we were the worst in the nation with takeaways and turnover margin of -18.

If he’s back in 2024 I’m done with this team.

Who do we have a legit shot at getting for DC? Fran Brown? lol

Let’s start it up. Completely unprepared every single game.

Start

Horrible offensive performance

...USF pays to rent Raymond James Stadium?

I believe it's owned by the county and run by the Tampa Sports Authority.

...to a Navy squad that just lost to the mighty Fighting Camels of Campbell.

Midshipmen starters combined for 23 points?

Something seems amiss...

Not a fan of the Temple writing on the jerseys. Do we have to live with it all year? It looks kinda dinky and small. Just not very relevant.

A typical block font is easier to read… kinda like what’s on their warm ups. Why doesn’t it match? I know I’m complaining! But branding matters.

Ari is very high on both Dillon Battie and Aiden Tobiason. He believes Battie would come in and be one of the best athletes in The American right away.

Let's try and get a good crowd for the start of the Fisher era! -14.5 point favorites last time I checked... predictions?

Good morning, everyone!

We're taking mailbag questions for this week's podcast until 2:30 p.m. today. We'll recap the first win of the Adam Fisher era, preview the Navy game and hear from Elite High School Scouting's Ari Rosenfeld to talk about Temple's two 2024 verbal commits, Dillon Battie and Aiden Tobiason.

If you have something for us or for Ari, drop it in here and we'll answer it on the podcast.
