Is it the fault of Elizabeth Davis and the administration or the one that schedules the games? Seriously folks, your criticism is ridiculous. The school has to set its schedule before the football schedule is set. It is not the fault of the administration that the SoCon schedules a a home game for Furman when the students are away on fall break.

As for Hendrix being verbally upset about this, show me the quote.
34:23 of the Furman weekly show yesterday.
I will give this to AllTImeFU - at least he came back with the proof. I haven't heard it... it may not be exactly what was implied /state but at least he backed up what he posted ...

I am NOT taking sides here.

Just saying he AllTimeFU - a great fan ! - was told "show me the quote" etc. And he SHOWED THE QUOTE. again, I haven't even heard it but at least he didn't make it up as some perhaps implied

I would think those that implied this was fake news and made up OWE AN APPOLOGY to AllTimeFU. At least a moderately tactful "ok, it was not quite the quote I thought it was but yeah, you were right, CCH did make at least take time to make a brief note of it "

Be impressed to see that from some !!! That would be a very POSITIVE thing. People on here talk about being POSITIVE all the time. Nothing is more positive than an apology !!

Here, I didn't EVER DOUBT AllTimeFU - ever - and I will apologize for others and myself ...
AllTImeFU we probably should have listened to the program before doubting you !!! .
Thanks for your contributions sir !!!

(And I agree it's probably very hard to schedule Fall Break and SoCon schedules)

and I will agree the Thread Title is a little Harsh and perhaps misleading...

"Let me be clear" (hear Kamala Harris voice), I was not the one that drew a conclusive line between the comment CCH had about having a home game during Fall Break and associating that with "THE ADMINISTRATION OBVIOUSLY DOESN'T CARE.". No coach would love the scheduling conflict. It happens all the time with holidays mentioned on a previous post at all schools. I happened to recall CCH mentioning it during the Monday presser and pointed everyone to his comment.

I also said I have not seen any indications of the headline of this thread and in fact said I didn't like it.

I WILL say this...I have hardly seen a constructive post by Gofurman or apaladin. One prior person said they didn't even think they were fans of or associated with Furman. That would make a lot of sense. I've even worked on a filter to screen all of your posts.

While I like you agreeing with my thoughts, I wish you weren't trolling around on this board.

Go DIns! It's a weekly race! Increase some rushing yards! Beat Chatt!!!

WTH?

Here was my Furman v Citadel game summary: NOTE THAT I SAID "Positives and "where to improve"... specifically avoided the word negative

WTH is your problem? Are you such a sissy this offends you??????? l READ IT BEFORE YOU REPLY -

And check your PM !!!

Furman Citadel summary
POST #91599 by gofurman

I must have EIGHT POSITIVES.. and FOUR "ROOM TO IMPROVE"... you guys really wear me out that EIGHT POSITIVES (from that Citadel game where we only had 3 drives !!!) and only FOUR "ROOM TO IMPROVE" is too much for you to handle. that, is. UNREAL.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Love to hear your thoughts - positives and where to improve. Game thread gets long.

GREAT TO WIN

GREAT TO BEAT CITADEL !!!

QB and others grew up today. Loved to see how the D - even 40 came out of injury tent - to celebrate and congratulate the O !!

what a half by a FR QB ! He grew up a lot. The whole team - especially offense - did !!

We made some GREAT CATCHES. TE, WRs some tough catches were made. Very impressive !!!

Pass pro was pretty good …

Our DL did well vs the middle (between tackles) runs of the Citadel

ONLY ONE TURNOVER. HUGE. Much better ! Even turnover ratio

Need to improve -

PLEASE get some run game. PLEASE. Some run blocking by the OL !! Watching us is like watching old Wake Forest. Finesse passing with no power MAN ON MAN run. game. Strange. Just surreal from a Furman and CCH team.

Pass protection from our RBs. We whiffed some here. Hidden took some big hits because of this.

Option defense? Man we struggled getting the pitch man. Like if someone could explain what block was springing the option against us ? . Was our DB getting shoved and beat by WR blocking. Was their tackle or TE beating our DE or edge on some such. Because that option play they ran was extremely successful over and over

Penalties at very inopportune times. Jump offsides gives 1st down to Citadel. Facemask gives 1st down. Seemed we would have them stopped on third. Give first down with penalty... they go on to get a TD or usually a FG. SEEMED many penalties were on 3rd down. To be fair I think we on,y had five penalties which is much better !

AllTimeFU - I ALSO congratulate you on your great score picks AND.... just at the top of this page was very kind to you saying..

AND I QUOTE: FROM POST 91728 ON THIS VERY PAGE - CHECK IT OUT :

------------------------------------------

I said you were "a great fan".. AND I apologized FOR OTHERS to you. NO ONE HERE EVER DOES THAT. yet I did. I never doubted there was some mention about students being gone. WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO THINK YOU SHOULD FILTER MY POSTS???

THAT MAKES NO SENSE. I call you a great fan.. . we have great banter about your ability to pick scores.. what gives?

Please check your PM. This was Shocking. Makes no sense whatsoever. Read my post 91728 at the top of just this page.

So many - PaulC, AP, Bootie, FUBear, Stumpy, FUWolfpacker, Jackal, FUPlayer74.. etc can back that I have been here for YEARS... and am a HUGE fan. Here and on AGS. They - for better or worse LOL - have seen my posts. ***I don't have the "stamina" :D :D :D to troll for 25 years - they may get tired of my posts... but these guys can back that I am a fan and have been here (and that I am old LOL) - was here on the ol' UFFP with Hawg and GSU88 etc

Would I HAVE BEEN IN CHARLESTON AT THE GAME (beside SoCon John though I didn't know who that was...) If I wasn't a FURMAN FAN? No, I would not have. Read the whole post.

You owe me an apology. Let's see if you are big enough to apologize for calling me a troll. You do.

Funny enough, I apologized to YOU for others saying CCH didn't make a mention of the students gone. So I APOLOGIZED TO YOU for something OTHER people did. Not even me...

Can you apologize to me for something you did? Which there is far more cause for... I would appreciate the apology. I am sure you will apologize since you are such a classy representative of Furman. Or we will see. It will represent our school... to see what kind of people we produce. Those that can apologize or those that have too much pride.

This type of post from AllTimeFU makes me quite disappointed in Furman and our graduates. Seriously.
I[b
]f you think I am a troll.... then our degree just lost value.[/b]. I am such a big fan I take heat for wasting too much time on Furman Football. ANYONE here knows I am a fan from 30 years ago. I actually attended and started watching in 91. HUGE FAN. HUGE. But occasionally I run across someone like you and my fandom takes a hit.

This thread is magical.

First apaladin is sore that we have a home game during fall break, blaming ED. And it just descends from there into madness. FUBear helps me to understand that my ED, which was not caused by that painful UTC I caught from the toilet seat, is not to be blamed on the Jim Beam. No, it was that girl's fault. And its true, she willfully neglected to tell me she was heinous. You think something like that would have come up earlier in our meeting. But I didn't come here to air my resentments from years gone past...

Back in 1979-82 we didn't get no fall break. We went to class and studied all the dang time. You see, most classes graded on the curve, and most of your fellow students were super-nerds who graduated at the top of their HS class. You had to go HARD every day. John Johns insisted.

Then GoFurman gets miffed because someone slighted him. Hey, don't miff the Gofurman. He loves this board. The trick to reading a Gofurman post is to imagine him as one of Bill Swerski's Superfans. Your life will be better that way.

Why hasn't Gofurman ever asked me to check my PMs? I think he's singled me out to be ignored. I am perfectly willing to apologize to anyone for anything, even if its completely unwarranted. I'm sorry. I'm a very sorrowful person.

Somewhere in there Davemeister interjects the awesome stat that over 98% of psychics are rejected by their fellow psychics. It was on the radio. The one in his truck. Now that's a valid point well-made.

As Kamala Harris said: "We need to step back and consider what we're dealing with here. We're talking about a home game, okay, during fall break. A home game. Look, I know, and lot of progress has been made, on this front as others are too, as we're looking for all the dreams and all the creativity, okay, in the Furman program, which is a program at Furman, to imagine a home game in the future unburdened by fall breaks of the past. Because that's what this is. And that's what my administration will do."
