Sounds about right. Welcome to WCU fan base. We win, we all think we can beat the world, we lose, we all think we won't win another game and need to fire all the coaches. Welcome to D1 football Odom. It is what it is. Meanwhile, go read U of SC boards right now and compare/contrast. Not justifying any of the fan bases, but, well, what do you expect? Keep pressing on, don't listen to us, keep your head up and do what you do. Life in the fast lane. I work for a fortune 500 company and NOTHING I do ever seems to be good enough to feel secure in my role even though I bring in TONS of net revenue for my company. That's life. Year 26 in my job, rinse and repeat. WCU education prepared me for that I guess. All that said, I support you and team, will hold off on negative comments and conjecture as much as possible. A season is never sealed or determined in the first few games. Thank you for the win tonight.

Coach, unfortunately the negativity will not end until we make the playoffs and upgrade facilities in Cullowhee. Defense did their part last night. Thank you. Try to stay positive with all the negativity on this board. Or better yet, stay off of social media!! Go to Rodgers Brothers today and drink a beer and watch football!! GO CATS!!

If any fan base has a right to be negative at times, it is this one. This fan base is passionate about our Cats and have supported them even while losing over and over, year after year. We can all agree and be proud that the team kept playing hard and did not give up last night which is great but many have been waiting 30, 40 or even 50 years to see a successful football program. Year after year we have watched and seen tempting signs of success and improvement only to have our hopes dashed over and over and watch us sink back into irrelevance and mediocrity. Coach Odom you have not been around to experience this like we have, so yes we are negative at times and will likely continue until we see the successful on field results we all want. Don't blame the fans for pointing out the problems we see year after year until then.

I agree 100% with your comments, wcu77.
Good win on the road against a solid opponent.
Coach Odom, you and your staff have made decent strides with the D.
Reminder to you coach, we have been told on a number of occasions by your boss, that we have a lot more depth on this team, 5 starters out is an excuse, nothing more, plug in the holes and keep coaching and playing hard.
We all know the conference race is going to be one brutal dogfight!

It’s true that we members of this board and Catamount fans in general can be a little bitchy. It gets out of hand sometimes. On the flip side, here we are out in the sticks and in a media desert too, having never won a conference championship, and we still outdraw everybody in the league. 12,000+ last weekend for the damn Camels. It isn’t marketing savvy that does that, it’s loyalty.

It's been deleted off twitter... wonder why? Thoughts on this post by the new DC... Complaining about your fans who continue to support you is never a good look. Maybe he realized that or maybe someone else pointed it out.
