Temple is expected to hire University of Florida offensive coordinator Steve Addazio to as its next head football coach, according to source who is familiar with the search for Al Golden's replacement.
Golden was introduced as Miami's new coach on Dec. 13. Addazio, 51, could officially be handed the reins before the week is out.
Temple athletic director Bill Bradshaw, who has not commented on any of the candidates he interviewed for the vacant position, would not comment on Wednesday.
Addazio saw the coach he worked under at Florida, Urban Meyer, announce his retirement effective after the Gators play Penn State in the Outback Bowl on Jan. 1. New Florida coach Will Muschamp is likely to bring in a new staff.
