Season 9, Episode 20: Why it’s OK to feel good about Temple football and why Diane Richardson’s Owls could win a conference title

OwlScoop.com - The Scoop

While Adam Fisher’s Temple men’s basketball team looked very much like a rebuilding program with a first-year head coach in its loss to ECU Wednesday night, Diane Richardson’s women’s team is starting to hit its stride and could be playing for first place in the American Athletic Conference standings next week.

We talked about that, along with Temple’s ever-evolving football roster as Stan Drayton’s program continues to lose and gain players through the transfer portal, as well as the high school and junior college ranks.

And in this week’s mailbag, we’ll tell you why it’s possible to feel optimistic about the Temple football program after consecutive 3-9 seasons, and we answered an age-old question about what the athletic department could and should do to address low attendance numbers at the Liacouras Center.
