Friday football notebook

Temple is scrimmaging today for the second time during preseason camp. Stan Drayton will speak with reporters Monday and we'll have those details for you after the presser.

Here are some updates from our Friday football notebook in case you missed it out on the front page.

Charlene Curtis

The former Temple women’s basketball coach (the program’s first black coach) from 1990 to 1995 has passed at 67. Several of us had the honor of covering her teams. A tremendous coach whose team’s struggled mightily given the negligence by the university at that time. She was quality person. Rest Well, Coach

Mailbag questions for The Scoop for Mike Vreeswyk

I'm interviewing Mike Vreeswyk for this week's podcast and for our next installment of the Legends of North Broad Street series.

If you have mailbag questions for Mike, please drop them in here by 8 a.m. tomorrow morning.

If you have questions related to the current team, we can take questions up until 4 p.m. tomorrow.

Thanks as always for listening. And if you haven't subscribed yet to The Scoop, you can do so here.

More Weight to size with Length

Mathis weighed 205 lbs three yrs ago, he's now at only 210? Is it me?

Outside of Navy, the OL is shaping up to be one of the lightest rooms in the AAC. Makes Temple Tuff in the 4th quarter challenging.

UGA has 27 players on the roster > 300 lbs vs where TUFB needs to be?

This is a "happy news" only site, so I appreciate the risk of raising issues lol

Mailbag questions for The Scoop with Dionte Christmas

We are tentatively set to talk to Dionte Christmas tomorrow. We'll air part of that interview on this week's episode of The Scoop, while the other piece of it will be part of our upcoming Legends of North Broad Street series.

We'll get Dionte's take on our OwlScoop fantasy hoops draft and ask him about his playing days and what he's up to now.

If you have mailbag questions for him or for us as a staff about the team, please drop them in here by 1 p.m. tomorrow.

Thank you!

More space for AAC on ESPN?

With the news that ESPN will be airing no Big Ten football or basketball under the league's new media agreements starting in 2023, I wonder if that clears the decks for some more American Conference content. I know the Big XII and Pac-12 are still up for discussion, but even if ESPN goes all in on the Pac-12, none of that would even air here before mid- to late-afternoon. I haven't seen it addresses anywhere, but it could be a chance to move some games from ESPN+ to regular cable.
