Effort to rename Johnson Hagood Stadium
They should copycat Furman and just call it Hagood Stadium. What used to be James C. Furman Hall is now just named Furman Hall after some unspecified and hopefully untainted member of the Furman family. Surely there is some acceptable Hagood somewhere.

I worked with Carol Hagood. She helps out student athletes and is a great asset to the community!

To be honest, I knew Hagood was a Confederate General. I did not know until today that he was the villain from "Glory."
oooh - that would be awesome - re-name the bellhops’ stadium in honor of an African American Female Furman employee. What’s the link to petition.org?JohnKX512 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 17, 2020 9:37 amI worked with Carol Hagood. She helps out student athletes and is a great asset to the community!

We can certainly refer to it as Carol Hagood Stadium henceforth on this here board. Good job John KX512. Good to here from you.FUBeAR wrote: ↑Wed Jun 17, 2020 1:53 pmoooh - that would be awesome - re-name the bellhops’ stadium in honor of an African American Female Furman employee.

I wouldn't enjoy this too much because if responses to the current crisis fail to moderate then we could end up defending the very name of our institution.
FU?
Seems innocuous enough....although FUBeAR Jr was once counseled that he was not to wear his purple T-Shirt with “FU” writ XL on the front to his HS a 2nd time. So, I guess I see your point.

Oh, I don’t see how it can survive. Going by the sentiments I see expressed by many here, there is no justification for keeping that name. I would be willing to bet the administration is already game planning this one. I guess FU will have to do.
Our guy was Revolutionary War, not the Confederacy. We should be okay.
It’s complicated.
True, but after the war his views on slavery became quite influential, including his 1822 "Exposition of the Views of the Baptists Relative to the Coloured Population of the United States", which, according to the Wikipedia article, "set out the arguments that Southerners would use to defend slavery until the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution (1865) finally put an end to slavery in the United States." So, not sure anything is OK on this front.
My point is he did not take up arms against the United States. They'll have to get Clemson first, their guy not only owned slaves but moved back to SC from Maryland to join the Confederate army. I'm just saying Furman is down the list a bit on having a naming issue.HB88 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 17, 2020 8:41 pmTrue, but after the war his views on slavery became quite influential, including his 1822 "Exposition of the Views of the Baptists Relative to the Coloured Population of the United States", which, according to the Wikipedia article, "set out the arguments that Southerners would use to defend slavery until the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution (1865) finally put an end to slavery in the United States."
