Ten things I think I know after A great day in Huntington (excluding those 4 quarters of FB)9/15/2019 After Saturday, I have some critical comments to make in this blog, but I am going to start off with some positive things. If you notice in the collage, I don't include any pictures of the active FB players or the field. I usually like pointing out the FB players that made an impression on me. This week, I want to talk about the things that were fun, the fans, UC and the American, our Basketball team, and a couple of items that I wanted to blog about last week but didn't have time..

When I went to check in at the Pro Shop the guy told me he graduated from Marshall in December and he couldn't wait to get back for the VMI game. We then drove to Huntington and played at Greenside Indoor Golf and Creekside before I met my wife, daughter and her boyfriend. I really enjoyed taking my daughter's boyfriend around to the various memorials and explaining our history. Once we got to the game, here are the Ten Things I Think I Know:
