They lost the game but they have class

I found this posted at the terrierfans web site.

It is about what Temple did with their game per diem from the Clemson game.

Classy folks.

I'll be rooting for Temple to win some games the rest of the year after reading this:



For the second time this season, first-year Temple coach Al Golden — the reason for the "Golden Era" reference — and his team donated their per diem money for a road trip to a worthy cause.

This time, the benefactor of $1,500 is the Fahmarr McElrathbey Trust, the fund established to provide financial assistance for the brother of Clemson defensive back Ray Ray McElrathbey. The player, remember, became his 11-year-old brother's guardian in order to remove the youngster from their mother, an admitted drug user.

"Our team and staff have followed your story and been tremendously moved by the situation and how you have handled it," Golden wrote in a letter to Ray Ray McElrathbey. "Our team voted to donate one week game per diem to help you and your brother... .

"Our players have a great appreciation for what you are doing ... trying to handle the demands of being a parent figure to an 11 year old. What you are doing will not only impact your life and Fahmarr's but many more people that you are an inspiration to."
