Good morning, everyone!

We're taking mailbag questions for this week's podcast until noon tomorrow. If you have one, drop it in here and we'll talk about it on The Scoop.

Lots of football to discuss and break down. We've talked to Stan Drayton again, Larry Knight, Kevon Beckwith and Chris Wiesehan. since we last recorded, and we'll be talking to Dante Wright, Demerick Morris and long snapper Andrew McIlquham, who is on the Wuerffel Trophy and AFCA Good Works Team Watch Lists.

​

Today's game presents some favorable matchups for the Owls.

Lynn Greer will be hired as Adam Fisher's Chief of Staff. Amongst other things, the hope is that he can help in the NIL space.

...Coastal Carolina was not yet a full FBS program as they were still an FCS Independent and Temple won the AAC.

Fast forward 8 years and Coastal is an 18 point road favorite.

Just a tidbit here to get a thread started for Temple's recruitment of the 2025 class:

Adam Fisher and assistant Bobby Jordan were at the Nike EYBL Friday night to watch Keyshuan Tillery. In addition to players like KJ Cochran and Cam Wallace, Tillery is one of the staff's top priorities in the 2025 class.

Hello, everyone.

We're taking mailbag questions until 1 p.m. Monday for this week's episode of The Scoop, our weekly podcast. We'll discuss Temple's loss to Coastal Carolina, the QB situation and anything else you want to put on the agenda.

Who will be the first to win a game temple or Florida st.

Halftime texas tech 52 north texas 7

As per some posts I have seen on X recently by a former player and his Dad, Temple does not do even a remotely decent job of recruiting its local core of South Jersey, PA, and the greater DMV region. Several of our previous coaches recruited those areas successfully with great results. I appreciate us getting some players from outside of the region like Florida but TEMPLE TUFF was predicated on our core value of RECRUITING THE I-95 CORRIDOR - THE TUFF LOCAL, CHIP ON THE SHOULDER KID! LET'S GET BACK TO WHO WE WERE! THE ACRES OF DIAMONDS ARE RIGHT IN OUR OWN BACKYARD! THIS ADMINISTRATION AND COACHING STAFF NEEDS A SERIOUS PARADIGM SHIFT! GO OWLS!!

Temple has long advertised on the station for football/basketball games, kid tickets being $10 on gameday, etc. and the prize for the mid-day show today is tickets to the Coastal Carolina game Saturday. Ray Dunne is also the producer and does play by play for Temple women's basketball. Needless to say they tried to sell it as best they can (the weather is supposed to be nice, bring the kids to a game where the Eagles play, etc.) as they were getting a lot of comments bashing the program, second prize being tickets to two Temple games, etc.

While the cohost said he thinks the program will be dropped soon, the recently rehired Mike Missanelli (and usual Temple hater) actually ripped the administrators and questioned why the program has fallen on hard times (again). He said they are not going to drop the program and while he understands the issues with NIL, if other programs at a similar level can win games more often than not, Temple should be able to.

From what I had been hearing the competition for the starting QB job had been extremely close in the pre-season between Brock, Douglas and Simon.

But clearly, Brock should have been pulled at the start of the second half as he played very poorly in the first half.

Why not start Douglas or Simon in the 3rd quarter, and switch to the third guy in the 4th? It makes absolutely no sense to keep playing a guy who misses wide-open receivers and is not really a threat to run.

I can understand Dietrich not being prepared. But keeping Forrest Brock leading the offense the entire game made absolutely no sense whatsoever.

Pitt fired their AD this morning. One of the rumors for the firing not embracing the NIL.

Good morning, everyone.

We're taking questions until 2 p.m. today and more than happy to talk some basketball as the season draws closer. And if you haven't subscribed to the podcast yet, you can find us on Apple Podcasts or any of the major platforms.

Good morning, everyone.

I'm sure you all have questions after Saturday's loss. What better way to vent and get them answered than to submit them to this week's mailbag? We're taking questions until 2 p.m. today.

Well, here we are. Not just one of the worst, but officially the worst. Let that sink in for a moment. I still remember like it was yesterday when we beat Penn State, and College GameDay was here. Now, we’re right back where I hoped we’d never be. Come to think of it, were we ever the worst….

How the Owls respond today should tell us a lot about the season ahead.

Here's Colin Schofield's preview. We'll have your coverage of the game from Annapolis.

Good evening, everyone! I'm here in Norman covering the game, so you can follow me on Twitter @jdicarlo for updates.

Turn down NIT invite.

Big 12 and uconn talks are over no agreement.

Couple things stood out: True Freshman Sultan Badmus getting 39 snaps and Ashton Allen getting the most snaps out of the receivers.

Kyle do you have the PFF ratings? Faminu looked to get pushed into the backfield at times and got beat bad several times as well. Siani seemed to get beat bad several times as well. Not sure if those are isolated instances and wondering how they were rated. Do you think Faminu gets another start sat?

I hope you've all had a great holiday weekend.

We're taking mailbag questions for this week's episode of The Scoop until tomorrow at 2 p.m. In addition to dissecting the loss at Oklahoma, we'll preview Saturday's Navy game and talk about anything else you'd like to put on the agenda.

Thank you as always for listening!
