Fisher on Gilyard:
“Masiah plays with toughness and energy. He has the ability to impact the game in so many ways - scoring, rebounding, defending - which makes him a great fit for our program. Masiah was the leading offensive rebounder in the country at the guard position, which we feel will be a major addition to our team next season. We're excited to see his game continue to develop at Temple, and we welcome him and his family to our program.”
