Tyler Matakevich talked to us on this week's OwlScoop podcast about being included on the 2027 College Football Hall of Fame ballot, and Adam Fisher explained what it meant to add a player like USC transfer Jordan Marsh to his roster.

@mikeytheasian @Colin_Waldorf The thing is, she’s clearly very technically sound at this, it just doesn’t speak artistically

[Varun Kumar @vrkumar8]

@mikeytheasian @Colin_Waldorf 😂😂😂

@andrewtaylor @HurleyMania Would put them way more as the Clemson of CBB, right down to the religiosity angle. Baylor hoops was great at NIL before NIL, but I think that was pretty obvious

@SplitZoneDuo Temple very much made a pitch to the Big 12 in 2016

[Varun Kumar @vrkumar8]

@legsanity Did this earlier

Don’t care what story you read/hear, John Chaney was 1000% the first coach to collect cell phones the nite before games. Flip phones w/ no screens but he could see that guys would be up all night & in their own worlds. Nobody could see what was coming around the corner better🦉

@PanasonicDX4500 90s were way worse

[Varun Kumar @vrkumar8]

@ettingermentum They were good in the 2000s, not 2010s. What are you talking about?

@Aaron_Bracy When does the book come out?

[Varun Kumar @vrkumar8]

Jumaine Jones was a high school teammate of one time Temple guard and Top 50/Top 100 recruit Ronald Blackshear, and they actually overlapped during their respective stints in Philadelphia as well

[Philly Sports By Number @philly_number]

Sixers #33- Jumaine Jones, F (1999-2001)

- 98 Games, 3.7 PPG, 2.3 REB, 0.4 AST

@ryan_roseweir Basketball and baseball have different committees so that’s not a good comp. Conference record has never directly mattered in hoops

[Varun Kumar @vrkumar8]

@MikeThreeswyk We’re seeing more retention in football than basketball, but there’s a couple reasons for that in my opinion

[Mike Vreeswyk 🇺🇸 @MikeThreeswyk]

I'll never forget when I would call Coach Chaney later in life when my kids were in HS and they were playing on their high school teams, coach would have me hand the phone to which ever one was around, or both, and he would proceed to give them advise and life lessons.

I miss Genuardi’s

What a time

@OmarRashonBorja Fake account lol

@trigonis30 What is a traditional business? Colleges are traditionally non profit businesses

[Varun Kumar @vrkumar8]

@trigonis30 There is no expectation for the athletic department to turn a profit. The chemistry department is also in the red, so is the English department. For athletic dept, there’s also a ton of overhead, scholarships are charged as a cost to the athletic department, etc
