ok let’s talk individual teams “ temple “
Temple will be able to silence the “ stadium stompers “ and build a on campus stadium, imagine that !
Pathetic little low-budget campus stadium with scarce parking, no true tailgating, a few food trucks, fewer dining options, and horrendous traffic jams instead of Temple's state of the art NFL stadium with bargain basement tickets, excellent dining, outstanding sight-lines, jumbo screens, refreshments, facilities, EZin/EZout, and tail-gating, You must be kidding!
If you had ever seen the proposed "lego-" stadium sketches, you will realize how much worse-off the program would have been had that stadium been built.
Fortunately, the Phila. City Council put that notion out of its misery a long time ago, and it ain't comin' back!
You can try to mock the stompers, but they had legitimate grievances. Their neighborhood would have been ripped apart, and the City Council rejected the plan due to legitimate public safety concerns and major doubts about whether police, fire, and ambulances would have been able to get through the congested streets in the event of an emergency.
Beyond all that, Temple's FB program is in serious need of a reboot under a new Head Coach. Their admin made a seriously foolish decision when they hired the current HC, didn't do their due diligence, and allowed him to appoint an unqualified co-OC with an abysmal record to be the teams OC (whom the team is still saddled with!), and to fire the team's outstanding special teams coach.
Don't get me started!!!
