The Future of Furman Football

[FUTex]

If it turns out that Furman hires a new HC I hope they get Duane Vaugh from Western Michigan. He was instrumental in building the good Defensive squad we have today, and brings with him the best cheerleader ever. If not Vaughn, I hope we can lure away Rick Vice from Pulham State. He has a past, yes, but is a motivator.

Hypothetical point. Just answering the question. FU plays football and basketball. Some fans pull for both!

Yep, well keep searching for the answer because its not just 'money'..........

We will get some good candidates for sure!

Update from my previous predictions 2 weeks ago.
Samford went from tossup to loss, obviously.
WCU stays at a loss
Citadel stays at a loss.
UTC stays at a loss.
VMI goes from win to tossup.(If they can score 14 they can win)
So 2-10 or 3-9 at best!

I'm not searching, son!

NC State just fired their coach. Of course FU would never fire a coach mid-season.

Some fans pull for both. Some divide. You be the judge.

Some fans pull for both. Some divide. You be the judge.

Then I am judging you as a divider by your statement:

"If you've got $300 k in NIL money for each program, obviously it'll go a lot further in basketball. Quite frankly one player can make a difference, not so in football. The difference and why Clay complains is that he hasn't received any increase in operating funds in forever. This is on the FU administation. He has to bus 2 days to Ole Miss to pick up a check and BB is traveling around the country by charter jet. Bob Richey is the highest paid employee at FU. He gets whatever he wants because FU is scared to death he's leaving. Hey I'm a season ticket holder in BB and have been for years, but somebody asked what's the difference. Well it's money."


I am not saying your not a fan of both, but that sounds like a lot of whining, crying and finger pointing to me

[FU Hoopla]

Nobody pointed the finger and blamed Football all those years we stunk in hoops, Football has to look deep within itself to resurrect what it once had.........

It's a tough collegiate athletics climate out there no doubt, but if you get the right coach (program leader) in place, anything is possible!

Clay has been a good guy at FU, but the product on the field (lack of talent and discipline) and his absence of answers and enthusiasm in pressers says his time has come to an end.......

Start the search and hope JD can find the right new leader for the Football program................

And get FU Football into the Patriot league once Basketball goes A10

I believe you gain more pleasure out of Furman Football losing....then you do Furman Basketball winning, which is a shame and not a true fan. You started this fiasco when you posted "the dumpster fire" after the Football team beatdown against ole piss last year.....remember?

With the state of college football today $$...NIL...FCS downturn...SoCon downturn....Furman's state of affairs (leadership..$$)....the greatest Coach in Furman Athletic History....CDS would have hard time navigating this landscape.

I just hope Our Prodical Son CBR wins his 3rd SoCon Bball Championship this year (which will be one more than CCH). Which I think he will.....

Remember "Karma is a Mirror"

Yes it will come around and some on here will be hiding under the rock they from which they came. Some are true Furman fans, some divide.

[Davemeister]

We should ALL unite around the goal of Fixing Furman Football.

No argument the offense is the worst that has ever put on the purple. Is the team worse than 2024? Consider in 2024 we lost to UTC by 31, WCU by 32 and MU by 26. Got embarrassed at Ole Miss, lost to Charleston Southern at home and was VMI’s only win. That was VMI’s last D1 win, they have now lost 22 in a row since. It is their only win in their last 30 games.
It is disappointing that after the 3-8 2024 season we were 6-6 in 2025 and now barring a stunning upset we are going to regress and finish 3-9 unless of course we end VMI’s losing streak.

Again, its not my fault the football program is awful, I am the one that wanted the program to upgrade to the Sunbelt, aim your shots somewhere else................
