D’Wan Mathis should be excellent for the Owls. He has experience playing for a prominent program in the SEC and plenty of talent to help Temple football.

Mathis began the 2020 season as Georgia’s starting quarterback. He struggled in big moments, though. Georgia eventually benched Mathis for Stetson Bennett.

Now, USC transfer JT Daniels handles the quarterback duties. He’s quickly become a fan favorite. Daniels looks like the star Georgia was expecting him to be. The Bulldogs will be a legitimate national championship contender with Daniels under center.

As for Mathis, he’s heading to the AAC where he’ll try and help Temple in coming years.
