I get the wine and cheese crowd will laugh at little brother basically throwing a party on Broad for a four star recruit when they have a line out the door for them. But this doesn’t happen at Temple. Not recently. The last time we signed a four star recruit, Fran Dunphy was on the sidelines. Adam Fisher now has two of them! The Big 5 is under new management.

You’ll be minding your business on the timeline than all of sudden Adam Fisher hits you with a Mickey Mouse gif because the next guy is from Orlando. It’s a fun guessing game for fans to decipher. I wonder if there’s a group chat in the office where they’re all communicating what gif they’re going to send out. It’s like a war cry.
