Buffalo transfer Cole Snyder canceled his official visit to Temple, and a source familiar with his recruitment said Snyder's decision was tied to Evan Simon's commitment. As of now, Simon, Tyler Douglas and Forrest Brock would be the only scholarship quarterbacks on the Owls' roster heading into spring ball. Temple had been recruiting Johnathan Montague, but he committed to Boston College.
Another source familiar with the situation told me the Temple staff is still actively recruiting Samari Collier, who verbally committed to Arkansas State six days ago. Collier started his college career out of Texas' DeSoto High School at Illinois but eventually wound up at Hutchinson Community College, where he tallied 14 touchdowns and 1,400 passing yards this season for a team that reached the NJCAA semifinals. Programs like Buffalo, Western Michigan, Georgia State and Sam Houston State have been in on his recruitment.
Stan Drayton and his staff are still recruiting some high school quarterbacks, too, although I want to do a little more work on that before I can start putting names out there.
As Kyle Gauss reported earlier, JUCO running back Tyrei Washington has not committed to Temple yet, but two sources familiar with his recruitment told me the Owls look to be in pretty good shape there. If he commits, Washington would enroll in January and be around for spring ball.
Also, Salesianum School defensive end Ahmaad Foster reopened his recruitment last night and decommitted from Temple, I was told by a source I trust down in Delaware. That source told me Foster wants to play somewhere farther away from home.
