We won by 3 points. That field goal was such an idiotic call.
Well, as Charlie Munger says- it’s mandatory that you know your circle of competence.
Non stop trashing of our team and coaches ,who are all working their ass off, is some people’s habit.
Real fans are supposed to support their program, even when we have a tough season.
The field goal was not but the 3 prior were not very good.

I’m just thankful that I’m at the game and can celebrate a good win despite our overall season. We killed ETSU’s playoff hopes. Now, let’s drop Mercer’s seeding a bit.

Congratulations to the Paladins for today's big win! The players and coaches have endured a very difficult season but they never quit. It wasn't perfect but the final score was.

QB played well within himself. Only 1 mistake. Young DB's come up with 3 interceptions. Loved that last drive keeping ETSU from getting the ball back.

I'm more optimistic about next year. We lose JJ, Dimaggio, Clark, Hundley, and Wilson. Anybody else? We have a lot of young players that have gotten a lot of PT this year that should be better next year. Plus the injured players that can come back.

The poster that said earlier we don't have any talent and doesn't like either QB is full of s***.

A huge loss will be kicker Ian Williams. There are other seniors that may or may not come back. Only started 4 seniors today, all mentioned above. There were several R-Jr’s that started today so don’t know how many of those will be back. Same for those injured earlier. Probably won’t know until the roster is updated at spring practice.

What an exciting game! Some various commentary:

* ETSU is a good team. This is the team that travelled after the hurricane for 24 hours on a bus from Johnson City to Charleston and beat The Citadel after zero sleep. They have character. The Paladins defeated a team with talent and character.

* It is oh so important for a team to "learn how to win", and this team knows how now.

* The power of our possum is greater than Darius Rucker and his Wagon Wheel.

* If apaladin ceased his absurd negativity I think something would be wrong with The Universe. Yes, he has grown on me. Like mildew. I look forward to his post hoc "I know better" commentary, confusing results with probability. Its like a low-brow interpretive dance.

Already throwing out negative vibes for next year. I almost feel sorry for you. Can’t even enjoy the moment and celebrate a huge win for our Paladins.

FUBeAR once dated a Low-Brow Interpretive Dance major…or she may have been a Neanderthal with dystonia. Either way…best to steer clear. Take it from FUBeAR.

I think CB Mo Perkins is a grad student. He’d be gone too.

Reality is good. I am looking forward to seeing us improve to 4 wins in 2025. Go Furman!
