Daily News | A crazy day at Temple ends with Adam Fisher as head men’s basketball coach
In the end, what will be remembered, Adam Fisher was offered the job, and Adam Fisher accepted the job.Penn State’s associate head coach was the popular choice of Nittany Lions players themselves to replace Micah Shrewsberry. But that wasn’t the move up in State College, and this was more than a consolation prize.He’s got the resume. He was a Miami assistant, and at Penn State, his alma mater, before then. He actually started his climb up the ladder in the Big 5.
The top six Temple scorers from this past season are all hanging out watching from the Transfer Portal lounge. Maybe the new coach can convince some to stay. If Temple doesn’t find more NIL money for players, the name or ability of the next head coach is not at the top of the Owls’ basketball problems.“Fisher, Fisher, Fisher,” texted one long-time Temple booster who had wanted this man from the start, even before he was the choice. He was this man’s choice.
The ins and outs of that are footnotes now. My own view: I understood the interest in Young, despite his one 43-84 long-ago tenure as a head coach at Georgia Southern. All I heard was that this man would get players. Still, it was an interesting out-of-leftfield move. Young was interested and visited this week, but let’s face it, visiting the day before the president of the school resigns is an interesting time to visit, and if there wasn’t love at first visit, Temple is better off without Young obviously. Even if he’d succeeded, how long would he have stayed?
