Not sure, but who remembers the old Marathon Oil teams that FU played exhibitions for several years in the 70s-80s? I don't think they still exist, but they had some ballers back in the day and could be a good barometer for college teams early in the season.FurmanFan23 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 06, 2023 5:03 pmWho is this team? I googled them but I cant find anything on them. As far as I can tell its a construction school?

Yes you should try and get a little sense of humor.Roundball wrote: ↑Sun Aug 06, 2023 11:47 amI guess you are trying to be funny, but this is a ridiculous statement on your part. Besides, even a modest house is expensive. This property is owned by Furman, not the President of Furman. Why would Furman want to sell it?apaladin wrote: ↑Sun Aug 06, 2023 11:26 amI know but they could sell it and buy the president a more modest house and still have enough leftover for a baseball team.FurmanFan23 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 06, 2023 9:42 amThat’s the presidents house…. Every FU president has lived there since the school bought it

I recall going to one of those Marathon Oil games in the Auditorium as a kid and asking my dad why an oil company had a basketball team.HB88 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 06, 2023 10:38 pmNot sure, but who remembers the old Marathon Oil teams that FU played exhibitions for several years in the 70s-80s?

What’s up with @furmanhoops twitter account? It’s been saying it doesn’t exist on my end.
It's still there, they just changed the handle which changes the actual web address for it, it's now:Dins&Heels wrote: ↑Tue Aug 08, 2023 9:03 amWhat’s up with @furmanhoops twitter account? It’s been saying it doesn’t exist on my end.
