Good to see the ole field is being put to good use

Makes me sick. How much did it cost to replace the outfield fence?
Beleive Harker put in the fence. Its not a fence, its padding
Yes. The old one was just a chain link fence with hedges behind it, very unsafe for the players. The padding was put in to, of all things, protect the players.

Title 9 has gotten out of hand. A private school should be able to have as many sports as they damn well please.
Title IX was conceived when only around 30% of college degrees went to females. It was intended to balance the opportunity. Now close to 60% of college degrees go to females. Title IX has outlived its usefulness.

Nope there was padding that was a darker purple and FURMAN BASEBALL in big letters. It was there for several years, All that light purple padding is new.

I have 2 daughters, I like girls sports, and I know that these girls pictured mean no ill will, but seeing these girls playing soccer on the ex-baseball field ticks me off somewhat and is a little disrespectfull to all the FU baseball alumni.

Kind of like the white man playing around on top of an old Indian burial ground. :D

About Us

GoPaladins.com is the latest iteration of The Unofficial Furman Football Page. Launched in August of 1996, The UFFP welcomes fans of all FCS football teams - and fans of the more inferior sports, too - for discussion, cameraderie, and even the occasional smack talk.

For example, Furman has nearly twice as many Southern Conference football championships as the next best SoCon member, and over three times as many as The Citadel....which is why they must carry our luggage
