Let me just say for the record, we have the best fans in all of football. Sure, being a 2nd year program the "newness" of a football program is still in the air, but I'm talking about the hardcore fans that are at EVERY game. There is a group of fans that no matter where the game is, they will be there. I know your telling your self, "the are probably parents". You would be right about that, but those are the type of people you build something around. Nothing is built without a firm foundation, that includes the fans. There have been some games where our visiting fans have impressed other schools. Faulkner traveling fans have even set attendance records at other schools. But that's really not what's important. Let me tell you what is important...
When you run onto the field or off these people are yelling and cheering as loud as they can...that's what's important. These folks care for, not only their sons, but the success of the program. Sure, we've hit our share of bumps along the way, but this program is heading into the right direction. There will come a day when this program is one of the best in the country, and these dedicated fans will be a big reason for that.
So, if you have not been to an away game, I encourage you to make a trip. Once you get there, look around at the Faulkner fans and thank them for making it to every game. For you parents who are unable to make away games...don't worry about a thing...these people are cheering for your boys as well. I assure you that this is a big family and these fans show love to all the team. Please excuse me if I don't list the name for fear of leaving someone off, but you know who you are and on behalf of the coaching staff, players, and the entire University...THANK YOU!
See you in Kentucky!
GO EAGLES!
