Daily News | Competition ‘wide-open’ at Temple after three days of football training camp
The first-year Temple football coach has seen improvement and enthusiasm from his players, but he wants to keep the competition for spots churning for the Owls, who open the season against Duke on Sept. 2.
Here’s a look at the state of Temple’s offense, defense, and special teams three days into training camp.Of those recent additions is former Illinois running back Jakari Norwood, who had 27 carries for 120 rushing yards last season. He’s still waiting for his paperwork to be cleared but could be joining the Owls any day, according to Drayton.
Quincy Patterson, a transfer quarterback from North Dakota State whom Drayton calls a natural leader, has been making a name for himself early in camp. Offensive coordinator Danny Langsdorf sees Patterson as a player who can run well and has good size at 6-foot-3, 235 pounds. Drayton also mentioned the additions of transfers Ian Stewart and Adonicas Sanders have added depth at wide receiver.Defensive coordinator D.J. Eliot plans to use a 3-4 lineup with a variety of fronts. Although the returners had to learn a new system since Temple ran a 4-3 defense under Rod Carey last season, Eliot has seen the linebackers thrive in the attacking scheme.
