Temple football showing their true colors.

Even when losing, some teams still have heart. Temple University's football team showed it two weeks ago when they lost 62-9 to Clemson at home.

Following the game, Beth Kunkel, president of the Clemson University Faculty Senate, wrote a thank you letter to the Temple football program and to the University.

"We would like to ask that you extend our sincere thanks to your football student athletes for their generosity in donating their per diem from the Clemson-Temple game to the fund established for one of our players, "Ray Ray" McElrathbey. "Ray Ray" has obtained custody of his younger brother and is raising him while attending school and participating in the football program. This fund was established to assist him with the financial issues he is facing. For your football team to make such a selfless gesture speaks more loudly than any words of the quality and integrity of your students, faculty and athletic administrators. Thank you!"

Temple football is not recieving much praise these days. It has certainly been abscent here. Around the league and in the media, they are a laughing stock -of course, according to ESPN's that is par for all of the Big East. You won't even find any kudos at the schools fanblog. Every school has one, but Temple's has been updated only five times since April.

This is a small forum for a big thank you, but it needed to be posted somewhere.

Way to go guys.
