PHILADELPHIA - Any collegiate offensive coordinator worth his salt will aim to create versatility within his playbook. A dynamic system creates more opportunities, opens up running lanes and loosens coverage downfield.
As Temple spring practice continues into April, the Owls' offense looks to three underclassmen at running back to add an extra dimension to an already diverse gameplan. Sophomores Ryquell Armstead and Jager Gardner, combine with redshirt sophomore David Hood, to bring much-needed depth and experience to the backfield, each with his own unique running style and big play ability.
According to Gardner, the inclusion of the three backs just adds to the already powerful punch senior starter Jahad Thomas brings to the table.
