Daily News | Adam Fisher talks about enjoying the ‘pressure’ of returning Temple to basketball prominence
20 minutes agoSince his return to the area as Temple’s new men’s basketball coach, the Bucks County native has had a host of people looking out for his well-being, many of whom tend to be family members who unlike Fisher remained close to home. Many of these same folks are eager to see if his brand of basketball is one that will lead Temple back to an era of postseason play — and March Madness appearances.
Well, it’s just a thing that we have to embrace. I’ll say as a coach, it doesn’t change what you’re looking for. You know, we still want to bring in great young men. We want to bring in great student-athletes that other teams and other players can look up to. You know, guys like [guards] Hysier Miller and Jahlil White, these are stand-up guys that, you know, we want as representatives for our team and have other guys see as players they want to play alongside when they consider Temple.
Sure, it was amazing for guys to see guys like Jalen Pickett, Seth Lundy, and Andrew Funk find a place. I was so happy to see those guys receive success. It’s a testament to the work they’ve been doing, and the time and energy we as a Penn State staff put in to help these guys. Andrew and Coach Cam are in the gym, training, going through the motions, and to see that, I mean I was like a proud dad. It was exciting to see these guys dedicated to getting each other better. I take great pride in being a PSU grad. Being able to go there and be a part of [former coach Micah] Shrewsberry’s staff and help that team make it to the NCAA Tournament and to go as far as we did, means a great deal to me.
