These words below are not my words, but something I read on facebook, I was not present at the Atheltic Holiday Social in Winston-Salem, but the below quote was from someone that attended the event.
The last sentence is what concerns me a great deal. If this quote (or paraphrase) was said in public at this event, we must now realize that the win-loss record is of little concern to Randy, therefore no coaching decisions will be made with that in mind.
If true, and if he said that if I (we) want to focus on the win-loss record of the Catamounts, I (we) should just follow the Panthers, then Western Carolina has seen their last penny from me to the Catamount Club until Eaton is GONE as well as Speir. I personally will follow the Falcon, they never beg me for money.
Did anyone else attend? can you confirm the below?

I know for a fact that her statement is blown a little out of proportion. It was stated, not quoting exactly, “that we are in the academic business and academics come first. If winning is the most important thing to you, you should go and support the Carolina Panthers.”

I was there and that wasn't how he said it. It wasn't handled well for the event setting.

I love the people are fired up right now and want to push the bar higher but lying about what was said or not said and making a scene at a holiday social and then going on Facebook giving your BS account of it is ridiculous. Then you’ll have a whole group of people to get upset at the wrong people for the wrong reasons. |

She definitely was looking for a fight, Randy probably could of handled better, but I blame her for going there at the Social. Hopefully the Charlotte Social in a few weeks will be less confrontational.  |

Hopefully the Charlotte Social in a few weeks will be less confrontational. I think it's time all Catamount fans became more confrontational. Hell, I've waited over 40 years for a conference championship in football, always hoping things would be better the next season. Guess what, it's never gotten better. 7 wins is as good as it's gotten. Everyone that has anything to do with athletics at WCU, from the BOT down to the head coach should be confronted and made to feel uncomfortable. Maybe, when they realize the Cat fans are "sick and tired" of being "sick and tired" of not have competitive athletics, somebody will do something. |

You need to be screaming that at Allison Shetler not at Randy and Mark. At least if you are going to make a scene do it to the right people. |
