Wish we sucked that bad.

I agree. They may suck but they have a much better basketball program than we do.

I will not give them any credit nor be happy with any win that they get EVER, real hate doesn't die. FURMAN SUCKS!

How many of you had that in your bracket?

I pick the SoCon champ to win their first round game every year, no matter who they play. It has paid off many times and makes me look like a genius.

My loathing only extends to the gridiron Paladins.
Congrats to the MBB Paladins.

And the NCAA has a new dress code for this year. No heels allowed.

Furman is really sucking right now....
But would trade it for App to have one their first game in the tournament and playing right now.

I was at one of the watch parties in Greenville. It was absolutely slammed. Covering this team this year - having Bothwell and Richey on our show every week - has been a lot of fun and even though Furman sucks it was easy to root for them. Furman has a chance to become an elite mid major if they can hang on to Bob Richey. I’m jealous of what they’ve accomplished with a limited budget and two major conference teams in the state.

Although great story for them, big difference in P5 competition. Neither the 'Cocks or Tigers are good basketball programs. Clemson had an out of character year by being good. I like their coach as he was the coach of U-Dub back in the day..
In NC, there are 4 P5 teams with UNC and Dook having a great history and Wake/State having their moments from time to time
Great season for Furman...hope it doesn't happen again for another 40 years.

At least they will give us a home and home.I have been told that we have approached about every D1 in the Carolinas with very little interest.So good for FU .
