Is Furman Men's Basketball planning to start using 15 scholarships next season?

Not for ask the AD but similar to the last question. Why is it that Samford has 20 players listed on their roster? Is there a limit on the amount of walkons a team can have?

I assume the womens thing is some kind of organized national protest since everyone is doing it. Then boo to them all. Which team that FU played was out for the national anthem. I would support those ladies.
1. Question for Dan: When Pjay went to the line with a one point lead Wednesday late before he shot you said he was shooting 84.2 from the line for the year. Of course he missed. Why did you say that? It was automatic he would miss. I know you know better. :lol:
2. Please ask JD why the women are not out for the national anthem.
3. When will fans be able to get a visit/look at Timmons.,
4. When will baseball be back. It is sorely missed by many.
5. What happened with the return game at NC A&T?
6. When will the 2027 FBS game be announced?
7. Will we be able to get a Power school to open Timmons like Wofford(UNC) and others have done Elon, UNCW. UNCA etc.?

Women's team not being out for the national anthem is BS, time to cut them and add women's beach volleyball instead!

Why is Furman always the first and quickest to postpone games due to weather? Every other area team played today without problems. FU could have to. One thing you can never rely on is weather forecasts.
I am so glad Dan ignores your question recommendations. You love to criticize every decision made by Furman. They made the right call based on the information given to them. Besides, aren’t we still playing the game? Are you not able to attend on Monday night?

It’s too bad those “thousands” never attended a game or cared when we had baseball. Had they supported the team, we would still have baseball.

I will be there. Just puts the team in a tough place that could have been avoided. 3 games in 6 days but they are young and can handle it so all good.

Baseball is not a sport that is funded by attendance, never has been, like every other sport, except to some degree football and basketball. At least baseball did generate some revenue with attendance unlike the other sports.
