Anyone glean any info about offers from this past weekends camp?

Looks like a really good turnout out again

I was thumbing through it in the grocery store.

Their pick to win the AAC East:

"]["EMPLE!

Can we assume at this time that that we're going to roll over the 2 scholarships?

Anybody know how involved we are with him? Beyond that, does anybody know what type of player he is, is he AAC level, etc.? We seem to be linked to him but I have never really seen anything substantial on it.

Per his Twitter, Shamir Bearfield has transferred to William and Mary.

The former 3-star recruit was one of the founding members of Temple's Class of 2014 and chose the Owls over Rutgers and Michigan State. Bearfield redshirted his freshman year at Temple.

I wonder if these reports are true.

For those of you unfamiliar with this "word" it means , "I pay ten a year". It originated at Clemson University in the 1920's when ten dollars did much to sustain the athletic program. It is still used on window decals, stickers, etc. to indicate a contributer to Clemson sports. {A little known fact about little cared about topics from a South Carolina resident of some 26 years y'all. Have since moved back to Yankeeland.}

Granted a release from St. Johns

Previously held a Temple offer.

Will Fran be interested?

I was reading a stat the other day that of people who have a college degree in Philadelphia 1 out 7 is from Temple. That got me thinking...if all these Temple alum live in Philly, why don't they go to the football games?
If nothing else it just seems like a fun Saturday activity.

Nice story on the Virginia QB Temple offered.

Just a minor bitch: I'd like to know the kid's dimensions, i.e. height and weight.

I see he is 6-5, 195, but it would be good if it could be in the copy.

has a really big turnout with a lot of talent, im sure this staff will find the diamonds in the rough and get them at North Broad

I've seen tweets stating Will has a work out with the sixers and has had some with other teams. Hope he at least gets on a summer league team to show some skill

This poses an interesting scenario. Can players who transferred out for this coming season because the program was dropped transfer back for next year?

Unfortunately, young Leah has had a setback. Prayers go out to the entire Still family.

I talked to Jeff Wilson today, and he informed me that he's leaving Temple for a position at ESPN where he'll be involved with running and managing their events like the Puerto Rico Tip Off. So Fran Dunphy will be looking for a new assistant basketball athletic director/director of basketball operations.

Jeff is a 2004 Temple graduate and has been with Dunphy's staff since he arrived on North Broad Street. He was very good at his job, and he's one of the most genuine, hard-working people you'll find in the business.

I was watching the NCAA women's golf championship when the GolfChannel announcers put up a graphic listing the names and hometowns of the seven girls on the Duke team. Two were from Ireland and one each from China, India, Canada, France and South Korea. The commentator noted that the Duke cach travelled the world to recruit.
I could only think of how much money Duke has for its recruiting budget - and this for a non- revenue producing sport. I can only imagine what the bball recruiting budget is considering that the school is flying the women's golf coach all over the globe to get players.
The NCAA is Supposed to have as its mission the creation of a level playing field for all schools. What a joke this organization is.

Previously attended the Phelps School in Malvern. Yes plz

They seem to be off at a very slow pace . I know they have a lot of good players in red shirt , first or second years that can really influence the class of 2016 . I would think kids come to Temple to play by no later than their sophomore years and maybe the recruits see Temple with some depth already .

I think this class of 2016 needs to be heavy on offensive and defensive lineman and linebackers and maybe a quality wide out as well . I think we are set for running back , defensive backfield for at least another year .

give me your thoughts ???

Just curious.

Did anyone go to the coaches caravans in the Philly area. The NY caravan was cancelled - so wondering if anything interesting came up.

There isn't much chatter about 2016 recruiting. We know our top targets are probably Carr, Stevens, Ketia and maybe Hunter. Does anyone have any updates on these players? Also does anyone know any under the radar names that we are looking at? It seemed that Lowe and Alston emerged as top targets for us this time last year.

Rising sophomore 7'2 225 C Paschal Chukwu is transferring from Providence in search of more PT. Chukwu was the #61 recruit in the class of 2014. He took an OV to SJU(PA). I believe Temple recruited him, but didn't offer. Averaged 2.6 points, 2.4 rebounds, .7 blocks in 10 MPG. 33/50 from the floor, 24/40 from the FTL.

Should have a lot of options.
