I don’t think Furman has ever drawn big crowds. Maybe in the 80s.

I had often wondered how both Furman and Wofford did during their hay days

As FL called out, Furman used to have pretty big crowds in the 80s into the early 90s. But at that time the SOCON also had several programs who would bring much bigger visiting fan numbers, too (App, GaSouthern, and Marshall typically traveled well). Then Furman went into some down years and even when they got back to having some success I don’t think their crowds got back to being the same.
When Clemson started getting good people started going to those games, and of course with the advent of streaming games online many smaller schools continue to see attendance eroding.

The last part about streaming is why i am always impressed with the turnout for WCU
