#1 Furman vs #7 UTC (March 6 @7 pm, SOCON Final)
You’re right. FUBeAR’s 6 years of ‘Jersey Days’ are now 26 years away in his rearview…and with the CTE kickin’ in stronger every day, it’s a wonder he can organize a coherent sentence here. They are coherent…for the most part…aren’t they?Paul C wrote: ↑Mon Mar 06, 2023 11:48 pmFairleigh Ridiculous was what we called it. Carry on.

Random thoughts:
Happy to see top 9 guys all score. We wanted & needed all 9 to step up & they did.
Happy to see Alex finally have a breakout game.
Happy to see Carter Whitt hit his only 3.
Happy Bothwell bounced back in the second half in a big way. I think he was the heart & soul of our team this year.
Pegues a well-deserved MVP. I think he could be Player if the Year the next two years.
Slawson had a nice game. Surprised after 5 years his mental game is not better. There is a difference between passion & intensity and at times being a hothead. Surprised CBR did not have a greater effect here. Congrats to him on being POY.
I think the two biggest shots of the game were the corner 3’s by Foster. I don’t understand how before that he had shot only 3 times total and attempted one 3. And then at a critical time late he shoots a 3 early in the shot clock and comes back with another corner 3 (not where he usually shoots from). Kudos to him but wonder why he did not shoot more earlier.
I don’t understand why after Hien scored our first 6 points of the second half he hardly played the rest of the game.
I wish Alex when there is no one close to him (a shot last night and his first missed 3 tonight) would not shoot NBA 3’s and come up to the 3 point arc when no defensive guy is around. Both 3’s might have been good if he had taken a couple of steps in.
Kudos to Lister for a dedicated career and for as best I can tell, being a great teammate.
Great team win! And I still say CBR a is the best coach in the conference!

Unbelievable game. Perfect script after last year’s devastating loss. I wasn’t able to go to a single game this year but made sure to be at this one. I’m so glad I did as I got to witness a historical moment for our Furman Men’s Basketball Team. We now play with house money and I hope that we continue to play at such a high level. We will will give any team a game. Let’s go win some more shall we?
Good segment on Channel 7. https://www.wspa.com/news/local-news/fu ... attanooga/
WOW! The best player in the whole tournament and no one, not one person,, thought him worthy of a slot on either of the all-conference teams. Dnag! We’ll deserved, young man.
Anyone who says money can't buy happiness never had season tickets.

My real name is Tommy Doughton. I played basketball at Furman from 1980 -1984. I was there when all the losing started. I am so proud of this team and coaches. They are special. I am also proud of the many fans that stayed with Furman during the rough years. Last night was a great night for me and all Furman fans. It has been way too long.
Go dins.

I remember. There was some losing but I'm thinking that group played pretty well in the tourney with at least one upsetGOAT wrote: ↑Tue Mar 07, 2023 2:18 pmMy real name is Tommy Doughton.
