From a gambling probe into the program to coming one win away from the NCAA Tournament, Temple head coach Adam Fisher calls the last 10 days an 'emotional run.'
Temple and leading scorer Hysier Miller, shown in action on Sunday, saw their magical run fell short in the AAC title game against UAB.FORT WORTH, Texas — Adam Fisher appeared stage left inside the interview room at Dickies Arena, not with the two players he was slated to bring with him — Hysier Miller and Steve Settle III — but with the entire team.. The Owls looked a step behind, outclassed, and outgassed.
It was a 10-day stretch, given the extracurriculars, that had to wear on Fisher, a Jamison, Bucks County, native. Asked how the team blocked out the noise, Miller, who scored a career-high 32 points in Sunday’s loss, said “everybody’s just getting up and hooping and playing together.” Temple continues to decline comment on the subject of the gambling investigation, and the details of the probe have not yet been made public. It remains unclear if any Temple players were involved in any nefarious activities, or if any disciplinary action will come from it. Temple’s run this weekend opened the Owls up to speculation. How could they win so many games now, in March, but not earlier in the season?in his first season.
