Temple fires football coach Carey after 3 lackluster seasons | |
PHILADELPHIA (AP) Temple fired coach Rod Carey on Monday after three seasons with the school, ending a tenure that started with a bowl game and finished with a combined two conference wins in the last two seasons. The Owls completed a 3-9 season on Saturday with their seventh straight lopsided loss, falling to Navy 38-14. "It's never an easy decision to replace a head coach," Temple athletic director Arthur Johnson said. "The past two seasons have not been easy with the challenges of the pandemic. I want to thank Rod for staying committed to our student-athletes and wish him and his family well in their next chapter." MORE | |
