In 33 previous years as a college head coach, K.C. Keeler has never encountered two consecutive losing seasons. Maybe that’s a sign of good things on the horizon for a Temple program that went 5-7 in 2025, Keeler’s first season with the Owls. He, along with his general manager, Clayton Barnes, talked about that and several other topics in their interview with OwlScoop.com for this week’s podcast.…
August is here, and the beginning of Temple’s preseason football camp is marked by another quarterback battle, this one between Penn State transfer Jaxon Smolik and Washington State transfer Ajani Sheppard. We shared our notes from the Owls’ first practice, talked about positions of strength and concern, and answered questions from a full mailbag as we kicked off our 12th season. And although this…
While it was important for head coach Adam Fisher to replenish his roster with nine transfers and an incoming freshman, maintaining some continuity on the roster with a player like rising sophomore guard Cam Wallace was important, too. Wallace, a former start at the Westtown School, played in just 19 games as a true freshman and averaged 2.1 points per game, but a full college offseason in the…
What’s in a name? Temple forward Sir Issac Herron had plenty to say about that on this week’s episode of The Scoop. The 6-foot-10 forward who joined the Owls via the transfer portal from Louisiana Tech talked about the origins of his name, recovering from two injuries, and why he feels better than he ever has as he attempts to build upon last season and improve coach Adam Fisher’s frontcourt.…
Temple women’s basketball coach Diane Richardson joined us on The Scoop this week for a deep dive into a roster that includes an even mix of six returnees and six newcomers as the Owls head into the 2026-27 season. Why did Kaylah Turner, Tristen Taylor and Saniyah Craig decide to come back? What could the additions of players like Penn State transfer Shayla Smith and JUCO All-American Myla Benton…
Temple’s backcourt is comprised of two point guards head coach Adam Fisher and his staff nearly got prior to last season before circling back and landing them this time around. Former USC guard Jordan Marsh, who joined us earlier this month on The Scoop, is one of them. The other, former Indiana point guard Deuce Drake, sat down for an interview with us this week to talk about his well-traveled…
Temple literally got a courtside view of what Baboucarr Njie could do when the former UTSA wing guard dropped a career-high 25 points on the Owls back in January and added 10 rebounds for a double-double. And now that Njie has signed with Temple out of the transfer portal, head coach Adam Fisher and his staff can gameplan with the 6-foot-6, 185-pound junior instead of having to prepare to play…
K.C. Keeler’s 2027 recruiting class is starting to round into shape after another successful official visit weekend, and we’ll get you caught up on the latest verbal commitments. And on the basketball front, you’ll hear our 1-on-1 interview with Christian Beam, the 7-foot-1 transfer center who just might give coach Adam Fisher the interior presence he’s been missing in his three previous seasons…
Last week on The Scoop, Temple head coach Adam Fisher talked about why he was excited to bring USC transfer Jordan Marsh to Temple. This week, you’ll hear from Marsh himself in our 1-on-1 interview with the rising senior point guard. After averaging 18.8 points per game at UNC Asheville two seasons ago, Marsh entered the portal and nearly committed to Temple after a visit with the Owls before USC…
Tyler Matakevich told us he was “speechless” when he found out he was included on the 2027 College Football Hall of Fame ballot. The former Temple linebacker, consensus All-American and NFL veteran talked on this week’s show about what the honor meant to him and why he’s looking forward to coming back to watch the Owls take on Penn State this fall. You’ll also hear Temple men’s basketball coach…
