My thoughts
I'm done with Furman athletics. I wont be supporting them. They have burned the bridge. The baseball/lacrosse debacle and now this have pushed me over the edge.
Go Gamecocks.
Go Gamecocks.

Teams continue to schedule games for the fall as we do not. Sad.

Cave has been a UFFP regular for as long as I can remember. Maybe even an ‘original,’ which FUBeAR / FU5454 is not & I’ve been around for-almost-ever.
I’m sure Cavedweller is welcome to participate & stay ‘signed-on’ to TheUFFP as long as he chooses to, whether choosing to support FU Athletics & FU...or not.

Don’t give up cave. I know it’s hard to get excited about FU athletics but I am holding out hope at least for the time being. Leadership can change and that is what I am hoping for. I’m not giving up yet and I hope you have a change of heart also.cavedweller2 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 18, 2020 1:26 pmI'm withdrawing my support from the University as a whole.Roundball wrote: ↑Tue Aug 18, 2020 1:23 pmSupport the student-athletes, not Furman athletics.cavedweller2 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 18, 2020 11:54 amI'm done with Furman athletics.

Good to hear you will still be around. I hope you have a change of heart and will be able to support our Paladins. I enjoy your input.
