The Temple News put together a seven month long investigation regarding the emotionally abusive nature of former head coach (2008-2014) Eric Mobley. It reveals an athletic department that was too cheap to buy a proper throwing cage, resulting in the termination of an A-10 record holder's career. A coach that was too selfish to allow athletes to take proper time off following injuries, with the repercussion of rebuking scholarship money. It revealed abuse and beration leading multiple athletes to contemplate suicide. Possibly worst of all, the administrators in Temple's athletic dept allowed this activity to continue for years. If you've heard anything about Temple track and field recently, It's most likely due to 2012 grad Travis Mahoney, one of the nations top steeplers currently running for NJNYTC. It's amazing he made it out of this dilapidated excuse for a track program to be where he is at today.
TL;DR - Temple track is/was an absolute trainwreck.
