Scanning the SoCon's preview of Furman

Scanning the SoCon continues with preseason previews of all 11 Southern Conference teams. Today's preview is Furman.  Friday's preview is Samford.

Furman Preview: Medved to the Rescue
By SoCon John


Furman posted the league’s worst overall record last season, winning just seven games (7-24) and just 3-15 in league play, which placed the Paladins at the bottom of the South Division. That led to the dismissal of Jeff Jackson after seven seasons, and now at the helm is Niko Medved.

Medved comes back to Furman, where he served two separate stints under Jackson’s predecessor, Larry Davis, as an assistant. Medved was an integral part of Colorado State’s NCAA Tournament club last season, which won 26 games and was the No. 8 seed in West region, helping the Rams to back-to-back NCAA Tournaments under two different head coaches, in Tim Miles and Larry Eustachy.
