No more "Country Roads" before kickoff! Song sucks as bad as JD's piloting skills!

Prolly a request, it's better than a lot they play. At least you can understand what he's saying. :)

Yeah, but it's important to attract young people to the games and that's what they listen to.

I agree with Fred. My thought was, "What is that?" Is that supposed to inspire enthusiasm for the game?

It’s a great song, but please, not at a football game.

Yeah, it must have been a result of the new Furman Funk thing. At least we didn't play it while Marsha was in town. ;)

Good point Fred.

Agree. For such a Smart’ school we miss on some very basic things. John Denver? The Jumbotron operator ? When can we do KISSLETOE again ? LOL. That was soooo embarrassing. Sometimes we get too
Cute. It’s football. Play something that kids want - recruits are at these games !!!!

"Country Roads" has kinda made a comeback, and a lot of young people sing it out loud and proud like they would a current song. It's a great song, fine with me at some point during a game, but it might not be the best pre-kickoff song. Here's more...

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
