Hatin On - Bruce Fowler

While we may have lost money night, it was definitely not because we didn't "Hate On" their coach enough. That was an amazing display, Hokie Nation.

Anyway...the show must go on.

This week's guest, Bruce Fowler. Fowler is the Head Coach of the Furman Paladins,

There isn't much out there on him. He's been the HC at Furman since 2010 tallying a 20-28 record (still better than Mike London).

Since many of us have no idea who he is or what he looks like, below is his picture from his official Furman profile

Guess I'll go first:

Bruce Fowler only has 2 sentences on his wikipedia page - Link

Enjoy the game...GO HOKIES!

At least their fans are supportive.

Also, 'twas a female that posted it. Anyways, wth does F-U-P stand for?

Furman University Palladins. Their big thing is yelling "F U!" in call and response style at home games, like our "Let's Go" . . . "Hokies!" Only theirs used to be led by the university president, if you can imagine that. Furman's a small school, but their fans do enjoy having a good time, as tube top girl and giraffe guy so aptly demonstrate :)

"Tajh Boyd over the middle . . . and it's caught for an interception! Michael Cole, lying flat on his back, ARE YOU KIDDING???"

They used to be the Christian Knights

Bruce Fowler refuses to find the "Fowler? I hardly know her!" joke funny
