Chief’s Briefs - Temple

Confirmed - that’s why I did not focus blame on Jalen as some casual fans suggest I should.

There aren’t too many players who could play well being triple teamed and four teammates incapable of scoring (or dribling..or passing..or rebounding...)

New Hampshire vs. Temple - Box Score - November 14, 2016 - ESPN

It's not easy to go into the Liacouras Center and get a win. When we did it, it was because we had a veteran roster that could control the tempo, limit turnovers, and keep the crowd out of it. Turning it over 16 times like UConn did tonight is a recipe for disaster, and as far as taking the crowd out of it, well they didn't do that either. It's harder to yell Fly Eagles Fly when you've just been kicked in the gut, but that's the importance of leadership. Jalen Smith's don't grow on trees.

Interesting. I've always thought of UNH as more of a hockey school. How's your hockey team doing this year. Do you play UConn at all?
