Some Paladin fans are not happy

this is perhaps the softest fanbase I've ever seen. Must come from being coddled in that cute little 2,500 student enclave.

Reminds me of W&M fans last year coming to Bozeman. Claimed how disrespectful we were expecting to crush them.

I don't see Furman keeping this game close.

I guess it's what happens when you're not hardened by the vitriol on this site day after day. :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
For some reason, this guy finds a game the Griz won 34-7 "encouraging". :lol:

This dithering fan stuff is silly. I've seen only one Furman alum on this board and that dude sounded like one of the numerous fake accounts to that appeared on the board this season.

Furman has maybe a couple thousands fans, who aren't invested enough to fill a modest stadium. The demographic breaks down like this:

Players' moms.
Players' girlfriends.
Dads.
Roper's mom
 
Furman fans: "We get no respect"

Also, Furman fans: "The one thing I noticed is it all starts up front with their NG Gubner, he makes that scheme go. Good player and maybe one of the 2 that could start on our defense"

Gonna be some epic crow one way or another afterwards lol

There is something familiar about the FU guy, I can't quite put my finger on it.

I have some thoughts in mind who it might be. But I know that dips#%t hasn’t stepped foot in South Carolina. My vote is the crazy Cat fan on Twitter.
 
Yeah reading through that board is comedic. They seem to have a few posters that must know more about football than every other coach in the big sky.

They also seam to think their caliber of football is unmatched by Big Sky teams. Apparently everyone in our conference tackles poorly, doesn’t have athlete like they have, doesn’t have depth and many other deficiencies.

I say Furman is going to be lucky to keep this thing within 14 points.
 
Their site is down. Maybe we overloaded it with all of our traffic there :party:
Maybe it'll get up and running by game time! :!: :?:
 
That brand of football the Southern Conference plays??? I'll take whatever they are smoking if they think the Southern Conference is a legitimate FCS level power. The stats just don't back it up. Heritage and Tradition maybe, but the last decade? Uhh...not so much.

No FCS Semi-Final or Championship game appearances since 2012 (GSU). When you remove Georgia Southern and App State, they don't have diddly squat to rest their laurels on.

They don't have a single member of their current conference who has seen a semi-final since 2005, and a championship game since 2001. Both are Furman.

That isn't the track record of an elite conference.
 
Paladin, Richard Boone, pd the TV series :'Have Gun, Will Travel,' died 42 years ago. Ain't gonna get any better, Paladin pals.

Boone was a consummate pro, who, I think, never got enough credit for his acting abilities and range. HGWY was one of the best of those great TV westerns ... really, almost their last gasp. Some fine leading men got their start in those shows ... think Steve McQueen, Clint Eastwood, and some others.

Best business card ever.

Indeed. The motto still used today by a gravel operation north of Sun River. Sign simply says, 'Have Gravel, Will Travel.'
