Wacky SoCon
VMI that beat us loses to UNCG that we beat today by 16 in Lexington
All 5 SoCon games today were decided by double digits. Paladins covered the spread and now are in sole possession of second place behind the unbeatable Mocs.

Have been multiple games this year that the pep band has not attended, they don't seem very committed is you ask me

I see dance team and cheerleaders at the game today but no band

I know some of those guys are on scholarship, seems they should have to attend more of these games then they actually do, but I don't think they seem to care much
I have a family member in the band. They would have been there if allowed….


What, why not allowed I don't get it?
If that is the case, whomever didn’t allow it should be fired.



Somebody doesn't want Live Music to compete with the DJ.

The Net rankings likes large victory margins. Samford beat #256 WCU by 25 and jumped 29 spots. Furman beat #215 Mercer by 15 and went up one spot. Granted the higher you are ranked the harder it is to move up. FU is currently #105.

Interesting that we now have beaten two SoCon teams that feature their inside game in Mercer and UNCG and lost to VMI, who may have the best low post player in the conference but are mainly a three point shooting team. Wofford is also an inside oriented team this year. UTC has balance but most of the other SoCon teams are guard or wing reliant. Our smaller lineups haven't really hurt us against bigger guys.

Speaking of the Well I heard thru the grapevine that a covid issue kept the pep band away Saturday. Since FU gives a lot to the BSWA and the only one that plays games on that court except hs playoffs I think that floors needs a couple of diamond F’s. Can’t see the future but kinda wish we had scheduled UTC instead of uncg at the Well.
