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, youâll 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 swooped in at the last minute to sign him.
When Marsh hit the portal again after this season, he said he didnât need to think twice about where he wanted to go.
âI knew exactly where I wanted to be,â Marsh said of Temple.
In addition to hearing from Marsh, youâll also hear from Keegan Gray-Wyckoff, one of three class of 2027 football players who have announced their verbal commitments to Temple over the past week, and thereâs a lot more past, present and future football and hoops talk in the mailbag, too.

After injuries cut his pro career short, former Temple star Shaun Bradley announced his retirement last Friday from the NFL. He joined us on The Scoop this week to talk about how he found peace with his decision and shared memories of his time as a single-digit linebacker with the Owls, becoming a 2020 sixth-round pick of his hometown Philadelphia Eagles, and what it meant play alongside guys like Darius Slay, Zach Baun, Fletcher Cox and Jason Kelce.
