Owls Nest 🦉 retweeted
you are a DISGUSTING human being if you do this, I’m an adult coaches kid take shots at me that’s fine but to a 13 year old coaches daughter???? Despicable behavior.
NEW: Nebraska head coach Matt Rhule says his daughter was accosted after the Washington loss:
"A guy walked up to my 13-year-old daughter and was like, 'F-U and F your dad.' I'm not going to keep coaching if it means my kids grow up screwed up. I'm not going to see my daughter shook... . I'm not coaching for the guy that attacked my daughter, I'm coaching for the people in the boat."
He added: "I said to my daughter, 'If daddy’s gotta retire, if I have retire because I don’t want you guys growing up in that environment...'"

Keeler’s debut was electric 🔥
🏈 42 points (2nd most in a Temple coaching debut)
💪 6 passing TDs (most ever in a debut)
📈 467 yards of offense (2nd most)
Only Rod Carey’s 2019 opener vs Bucknell edges him out statistically… but this felt bigger. #TempleTUFF #OwlsNest

We snapped the winless road streak now it’s time to defend the Nest.
• Second-ever meeting vs. Howard, first since 1991
• ESPN gives Owls a 97% win chance
Prediction: Temple 38, Howard 13 🦉
#TempleTUFF | #OwlsNest 🧵
Howard is also 1‑0 after the Orange Blossom Classic thriller,QB Tyriq Starks engineered a 10‑play two‑minute drive setting up Matt Conord’s 43‑yard walk‑off FG to beat FAMU 10–9.
Yeah, it’s “just” UMass… but man, this feels different.
We took care of business clean, confident, and under control.
Long way to go, but this feels like the start of something real.
Dare I say… 2015 vibes? 🦉🍒
Welcome @CoachKCKeeler.
