A move we absolutely needed to make. Should pay off big time in terms of local and national perception, recruiting, and teaching.

NICE!!!!

So what does this mean in terms of both Brunsons? I asume Rick is out?

Love Aaron Mckie, would think this will attract a lot of high major talent.

Of course Rick is out, at least for this year. There was no way we could possibly hire him.

Bye bye Jalen.

Not at all.

Very good hire, especially for getting those big-time players from Philly and the surrounding areas. I used to love watching him play (I was a huge Chaney fan).

I'm really looking forward to seeing how my Pirates stack up against y'all over the next few years. If we can win a few, even better.

I love this hire and most fans think it will make a major difference in our recruiting.
It is also a shot in the arm for our stature in the local college basketball scene.

From two years ago: "Temple...like I was going home to my family."

Glad to see Temple improve in both basketball and football... Gets a Houston vs Temple/Philadelphia rivalry that much closer to reality, I hope... The Big Four vs The Big Five City Rights.

McKie and E. Jones were a lethal duo...I recall them dismantling UC one year @Temple....
