Podcast appearances and mentions of Francis Marion

 In his new book This Fierce People:  The Untold Story of America's Revolutionary War in the South, Alan Pell Crawford brings to life the three years between Monmouth and Yorktown.  A brutal war in the South—a true civil war—set the stage for the victory at Yorktown, and here, Crawford argues, the War for Independence was won.  What happened between 1778 and 1781 as the war shifted to the southern theater? Who were the “unsung patriots” that inevitably set the stage for Yorktown? The distinguished journalist and author Alan Pell Crawford joins to discuss This Fierce People and his research on the Revolution in the South.  Tell us what you think!

This week on the Dirt and Vert Podcast, we're joined by Kayla Fitzgerald, the force behind Palmetto Ultras, whose journey from "hating running" to directing unique endurance events is a masterclass in mental strength and community building.Kayla gets real about how running started as a rare moment of personal peace amidst parenting responsibilities and quickly evolved into a spontaneous dive into the world of ultras. We discuss her transition into race directing, where she stepped up to keep her local ultra scene alive, even when faced with "sink-or-swim" challenges like unexpected flooding in the Francis Marion trails.From the mental grit required for the Last Man Standing format to her passion for creating the most inclusive, welcoming environment possible, Kayla's story is all about the joy of nature and the power of the running community. Plus, we talk about why aid station snacks might just be the most important part of the race!

In this special Independence Day episode, Ghost weaves an epic narrative tracing the origins of the American Revolution through the story of Francis Marion, the Swamp Fox, and connects those lessons to today's geopolitical chessboard. Ghost recounts Marion's improbable triumphs using irregular warfare and explains how his tactics and spirit echo in modern conflicts. Shifting to current events, the show dives into the escalating tension between Russia and Azerbaijan over organized crime raids, retaliatory arrests, and a media crackdown. Ghost analyzes why Zelensky has publicly sided with Azerbaijan, adding friction to the Russia-Ukraine dynamic. The discussion then pivots to Israel's Likud Party demanding annexation of the West Bank and how this push clashes with Saudi Arabia's clear rejection of any move erasing Palestinian sovereignty. With Saudi ministers flying to Moscow and Washington while Netanyahu seeks Trump's support, Ghost underscores how historic alliances are being tested. Rounding out the episode, he examines potential ceasefire developments in Gaza, the regional implications of a fragmented Lebanon, and why the Abraham Accords narrative may be shifting again.

After two decades of research and investigation, the South Carolina Battleground Preservation Trust, in collaboration with the South Carolina American Revolution Sestercentennial Commission (SC250), has unveiled the first volume of the Francis Marion Papers, a project that holds the potential to reshape our understanding of one of the American Revolution's most heroic figures.For this episode we sat down with Molly Fortune, CEO of SC250); co-editor Ben Rubin, and co-editor Rick Wise, Director of the SC Battlefield Preservation Trust, to talk about the work behind the publication of the papers and about Marion and his compatriots in the Revoultionary War.

This week our guest is SC250 CEO Molly Fortune. To celebrate the 250th anniversary of the Revolution, SC250 has recently published the first volume of the Papers of Francis Marion. To read the letters, visit www.SC250.com and for more information visit www.allthingsliberty.com.

After World War II, book publishers and film makers worked to identify American heroes that they could promote to the world.  Frequently these heroes were self-made men who used specialized knowledge or skills to defeat an overwhelming enemy.  One such character was Francis Marion, a South Carolina plantation owner who utlized his knowledge of the countryside to prey upon British garrisons and foraging parties. We talk with John Oller, author of The Swamp Fox: How Francis Marion Saved the American Revolution. Tell us what you think!

This week we'll be talking with Andrew Waters about his latest book, Backcountry War: The Rise of Francis Marion, Banastre Tarleton, and Thomas Sumter (2024, Westholme Publishing). In it Andrew weaves the history of three key leaders in the American Revolution into in a single narrative, focusing on the events of 1780 in South Carolina that witnessed their collective ascendance from common soldiers to American legends. It was a time when British victories at Charleston and Camden left the Continental Army in tatters and the entire American South vulnerable to British conquest. Yet in those dark hours, Sumter, Marion, and others like them rose in the swamps and hills of the South Carolina wilderness. Their collective efforts led to the stunning American victory at Cowpens and a stalemate at Guilford's Courthouse the following year that finally convinced British general Charles Cornwallis to abandon the Carolinas for Virginia and eventually to Yorktown where his beleaguered army surrendered.

What I am determined to stamp out is this idea of being a “likeable” as a Black woman. The RIGHT kind of Black woman not only DOES NOT EXIST, there is no way to exactly REMAIN her if you ARE her (which I assure you, you not sis). Note: I misspoke; her name is PEARL MOORE. Pearl Moore of Francis Marion has the overall women's record with 4,061 points from 1975-79 at the small-college level in the AIAW. Moore had 177 points at Anderson Junior College before enrolling at Francis Marion. This was BEFORE those records were incorporated into the NCAA.

South Carolina's impact on the outcome of the war as well as the founding of the new nation cannot be overstated.  We turn to Walter Edgar, retired George Washington Distinguished Professor of History at the University of South Carolina,  host of the popular podcast, “South Carolina from A to Z.” and author of the must-read volume Partisans and Redcoats: The Southern Campaign that Turned the Tide of the American Revolution  to untangle the complicated story of the Revolution at its most violent and fascinating.  

While Pearl Moore's basketball career unfolded far away from the national spotlight, there was no keeping the small-town girl from rural South Carolina out of the record books. The sharpshooting Moore was a scoring machine for Francis Marion College. She notched 4,061 points during her collegiate career, a mark that still stands five decades later. The four-time AIAW Small College All-America averaged over 30 points per game in leading Francis Marion to postseason play for four consecutive years.

This is Stephen Schmidt from the Gazette Digital News Desk, and I'm here with your update for October 13, 2023. Looks like it will be a rainy morning Friday. According to the National Weather Service there will be a high chance of showers and thunderstorms before noon on Friday, then a little break for rain in the middle of the day, before a chance for more rain Friday evening. The temperature will top out at 63 degrees, with a 15 to 20 mph breeze gusting as high as 30 mph.Francis Marion Intermediate School in Marion is closed to students the rest of the week after Wednesday's storm caused several parts of the school's roof to collapse.Restoration and construction companies were on-site at the school for third- and fourth-graders in the Marion Independent School District Thursday to survey the damage and determine a cost estimate and timeline for repairs.Superintendent Janelle Brouwer said a “significant amount of water” overnight Wednesday damaged three classrooms and seeped into other areas of the building. Brouwer said a construction company likely will be working to make repairs to Francis Marion school, 2301 Third Ave., over the weekend.The district's other schools will remain open.The damage was identified by an evening custodian in the school Wednesday, Brouwer said. Notification that the school would be closed Thursday and Friday was sent to families Wednesday around 8 p.m. The closure impacts about 240 students who attend the school.Alliant Energy's Iowa utility is proposing a rate increase for its electric and gas customers it says comes to about $150 a year — with more to come later.Interstate Power and Light Company is requesting a 7.7 percent increase to residential customers' total electric bills. If approved by the Iowa Utilities Board, the hike would go into effect in October 2024. That corresponds to about $10 extra a month, said spokesperson Morgan Hawk.An additional rate increase of about 5.7 percent would follow in October 2025, which breaks down to about $7 a month.There's only one phase of rate increases for natural gas customers: a 5 percent increase that, if approved, would start in October 2024. It would add about $3 more to customers' total bills.The utility is asking to raise its rates to cover added operation costs, support grid resiliency and allow future growth, Hawk said.IPL is moving overhead power lines underground to decrease the number and the length of power outages. Frequency and duration of Alliant outages have decreased by about 30 percent over the last decade as more lines have moved underground, Hawk said.Iowa state revenue is expected to decline slightly in fiscal 2024 and 2025, owing largely to recent income tax cuts, a panel of revenue forecasters reported Thursday.The latest projections from the Iowa Revenue Estimating Conference — which will guide lawmakers on how much money they have to spend — predict state income in the fiscal year that started July 1 will fall by 0.9 percent from the fiscal 2023 level. The state revenues this budget year are expected to be $9.75 billion.Iowa's revenue in fiscal 2023, which ended June 30, was $9.85 billion, a 0.4 percent increase from the previous year.“The state is showing a modest slowdown in revenue. However, those reductions are planned and being driven by the tax rate reductions for Iowa taxpayers,” said Kraig Paulsen, the director of the Iowa Department of Management and chair of the panel.Republican Gov. Kim Reynolds signed a major tax overhaul law in 2022 that set Iowa's individual income on the course to a flat tax of 3.9 percent for all income brackets, and intended to lower corporate taxes to 5.5 percent if revenues hit a certain target each year.

Brigadier General Francis Marion (c. 1732 – February 27, 1795), also known as the "Swamp Fox", was an American military officer, planter, and politician who served during the French and Indian War and the Revolutionary War. During the American Revolution, Marion supported the Patriot cause and enlisted in the Continental Army, fighting against British forces in the Southern theater of the American Revolutionary War from 1780 to 1781. Though he never commanded a field army or served as a commander in a major engagement, Marion's use of irregular warfare against the British has led him to be considered one of the fathers of guerrilla and maneuver warfare, and his tactics form a part of the modern-day military doctrine of the U.S. Army's 75th Ranger Regiment.[1][2]

In this episode Ben Zeigler and Stephen Motte from the Florence County Museum in Florence, SC, talk with us about the legend of Revolutionary War hero Francis Marion. The current exhibition at the museum, Legend: Francis Marion in the Pee Dee, examines the early decades of American Independence, when poets and painters turned General Francis Marion into a mythical figure; part fact, part folk legend. Those efforts were so effective that the cultural impact of their words and images lingers today.

Welcome to red, white and blue Braveheart! This July 4th, come celebrate America's birthday with us as we discuss 2000's epic of (barely) historical proportions! The Patriot is a historical war film written by Robert Rodat, directed by Roland Emmerich and starring Mel Gibson, Chris Cooper, Heath Ledger and Jason Isaacs. The story takes place mainly in rural Berkeley County in South Carolina and depicts Benjamin Martin (Gibson), an American colonist opposed to going to war with Great Britain who, along with his adult son (Ledger), gets swept into the Revolutionary War when his home life is disrupted and one of his sons is murdered by a cruel British officer (Isaacs). Rodat has said Martin is a composite character based on four historical men: Andrew Pickens, Francis Marion, Daniel Morgan and Thomas Sumter. Benjamin Martin: "Before this war is over I'm going to kill you." Col. Tavington: "Why wait?" Pitch Meeting Guy: "So the movie can happen!"

The chilling tale of love, death, hauntings, and the secrets of the Ockram family concludes in this episode. Vile old patriarch Sir Hugh Ockram's secret is finally revealed. But, what does it hold in store for son and his betrothed?

F. Marion Crawford is considered a master of ghost stories. This particular tale was published in 1911 and features a macabre mix of family drama, secrets, and haunting imagery.

In this story a ghost haunts a cruise ship, and very strange unexplainable events occur. Read by Robert Crandall All Rights Reserved.

La sonrisa muerta (The Dead Smile) es un relato de terror del escritor británico Francias Marion Crawford (1854-1909), publicado originalmente en la edición de agosto de 1899 de la revista Ainslee's; y luego reeditado en la antología de 1911: Cuentos misteriosos (Uncanny Tales). Posteriormente aparecería en 65 relatos para temblar de miedo (65 Great Spine Chillers) y Un siglo de historias de terror (A Century Of Horror Stories) Antes de comenzar a analizar La sonrisa muerta, uno de los mejores cuentos de Francis Marion Crawford, es pertinente mencionar algunas influencias. Dos de ellas son evidentes: Edgar Allan Poe y Nathaniel Hawthorne, particularmente los cuentos Berenice (Berenice), La caída de la Casa Usher (The Fall of the House of Usher) y La Casa de los Siete Tejados (The House of the Seven Gables). Estas son historias sobre males familiares que son heredados por las generaciones más jóvenes, casi como una infección que se activa cuando el miembro más viejo de la familia fallece. En otras palabras, F. Marion Crawford emplea esta herencia maldita que parece entrar en conflicto entre el libre albedrío y el destino [ver: El horror hereditario y la enfermedad de Lovecraft] ¡¡¡¡¡¡ATENCION: SPOILER!!!!!!! En Berenice, Edgar Allan Poe sigue la obsesión morbosa de un hombre con los dientes de su prima. Es una historia cuyo punto de ebullición combina la necrofilia, entierros en vida y mutilación dental. E.A. Poe utilizó el motivo de los dientes para simbolizar el punto de contacto entre la lujuria física y la adoración espiritual. En La sonrisa muerta, F. Marion Crawford emplea el rictus post-mortem como símbolo de carnalidad, odio y maldad. El risus sardonicus [«risa sardónica»] es un espasmo involuntario de los músculos faciales que produce una especie de sonrisa [al parecer, era común en los ahorcados]. El término también se utiliza para referirse a un fenómeno post-mortem que consiste en el retraimiento de los labios del difunto durante las primeras fases de la descomposición, generando lo que parece ser una sonrisa. Si bien la sonrisa muerta del relato de F. Marion Crawford tiene una fuente más sobrenatural que médica, funciona del mismo modo, al menos en el cuerpo de los difuntos Ockram; porque en este caso es un rictus contagioso, capaz de aparecer inesperadamente en el rostro de las personas vivas en Ockram Hall [ver: Psicología de las Casas Embrujadas] La historia comienza con sir Hugh Ockram. El anciano está muriendo y sabe que irá al infierno. Fue un notorio libertino que arruinó la vida de muchas mujeres. Ahora yace en su lecho de muerte con el gesto de suficiencia del pecador impenitente que nunca se arrepentirá. Sir Hugh es anciano, pero la mujer que fue su nodriza [la señora MacDonald, una mujer centenaria] contempla con horror su rostro amarillento y contorsionado por la maldad. También están presentes su sobrina, Evelyn, y su hijo, Gabriel, que han venido a pedir su bendición para casarse. Malévolo hasta el final, sir Hugh señala cínicamente que su bendición no importa, pero que hay una muy buena razón por la que no deberían casarse, una razón que se niega a revelar. Se queda dormido y los novios salen a reflexionar sobre el significado de este secreto. En la bóveda familiar, debajo de Ockram Hall, yacen los cadáveres de generaciones de libertinos. Gabriel solo espera no haber heredado su maldad. El joven relata la historia de un antepasado que fue decapitado, cuya cabeza tiene el pernicioso hábito de salir rodando de su ataúd y mostrar una sonrisa muy parecida a la de sir Hugh, una rictus presente en todos los Ockram desde entonces. Adentro, mientras oscurece, la nodriza MacDonald cree ver a una mujer en la ventana, una mujer que se parece a Evelyn, con los labios fríos y muertos manchados de sangre. El fantasma de repente muestra sus colmillos y emite un gemido espeluznante. La nodriza supone que es un sueño, pero cuando la sirvienta menciona que ella también ha visto a la figura [y comenta su similitud con Evelyn], la nodriza decide que era el alma en pena de la familia y se estremece de miedo. Conmovida, la señora MacDonald se coloca al lado de la cama de sir Hugh y le ruega que revele su «secreto» en nombre de todas las mujeres que ha destruido: su madre [no sabemos cómo], su desconsolada esposa y su amante abandonada. Sin preocuparse por su alma, sir Hugh la rechaza, sonriendo maliciosamente. De repente, Evelyn entra en la habitación, mira hacia afuera y ve a su doppelgänger en la ventana. Momentos después, sir Hugh muere con el rostro contorsionado en esta sonrisa malvada; y Evelyn siente que en su propio rostro comienza a insinuarse un rictus similar, que no puede detener a pesar de sus esfuerzos. Sir Hugh es llevado a la bóveda. Los sirvientes que lo trasladan se niegan a mirarse: cada uno luce una macabra sonrisa involuntaria que no se desvanece hasta que han salido de la bóveda. Tiempo después, Gabriel y Evelyn organizan una fiesta para anunciar su próxima boda. Cuando los invitados se disponen a brindar, resuenan gritos en el salón: el rostro de cada persona está torcido por la sonrisa macabra que no pueden reprimir. Se produce una huida precipitada. Los únicos que quedan son Gabriel y Evelyn, sentados uno junto al otro, incapaces de mirarse porque saben que en el rostro del otro está la sonrisa muerta. Sin embargo, esto no es lo peor. Ambos comienzan a sentir el impulso irresistible de visitar la bóveda para ver el rostro de sir Hugh una vez más. Una noche, casi al borde de la locura, Gabriel se arrastra hasta la bóveda para ver a su padre muerto. Mientras camina por los pasillos, baja las escaleras y se adentra en la oscuridad y el moho, reprime la sonrisa muerta en sus propios labios. Finalmente encuentra el ataúd y retira la mortaja. El rostro de sir Hugh, horriblemente deteriorado, todavía muestra una sonrisa de odio, pero Gabriel se siente atraído por algo que el cadáver sostiene entre sus dedos: un paquete que contiene su «secreto». No se trata de una confesión, sino de un alarde escrito, una jactancia del mal que sir Hugh ha cometido en vida. Según este testimonio, la madre de Evelyn [que era hermana de la esposa de sir Hugh] había estado casada con uno de los camaradas de sir Hugh en el ejército británico. El hombre murió en Afganistán. Sir Hugh la llevó a vivir a Ockram Hall, la sedujo, la embarazó y rechazó a su esposa [madre de Gabriel], que murió de vergüenza. Poco después del nacimiento de Evelyn, hizo lo mismo con su madre, y crió a la niña como su sobrina. Su deseo era ver a su hijo casarse con su media hermana para atormentar el alma de estas dos mujeres: su difunta esposa y su cuñada. Escribió el relato de sus acciones con la esperanza de que algún día, quizás cuando Gabriel y Evelyn estuviesen casados y con hijos, se enteraran de su incesto. En cierto modo, les heredaría el «secreto», que Gabriel y Evelyn se verían obligados a perpetuar para no arruinar la vida de sus propios hijos [endogámicos]. Al leer esto, Gabriel agradece que hayan retrasado la boda. Levanta la vista y ve que la mandíbula de sir Hugh se relaja y se abre; su sonrisa se desvanece. De repente nota a alguien más detrás de él. Es Evelyn, que lo ha seguido hasta la bóveda y ha leído el manuscrito por encima de su hombro. Por un momento se miran, luego se abrazan, tristes pero agradecidos, como hermanos. Hay muchos elementos para analizar en La sonrisa muerta de F. Marion Crawford. Lo primero que asombra es la cantidad de tropos góticos: amantes desafortunados, maldiciones familiares, incesto, antiguas mansiones familiares, bóvedas decrépitas, patriarcas siniestros, fantasmas, secretos y... banshees. Su delicioso goticismo se adentra en lo sobrenatural pero sin hacerlo obvio, empleando sugerencias e insinuaciones para forzar al lector a interpretar los eventos más sensacionales. El alma en pena, la cabeza que se rehúsa a permanecer en el ataúd, el cadáver de pie, las sonrisas inquietantes y todas las coincidencias que unen a Gabriel y Evelyn en una red, parecen genuinamente sobrenaturales, pero en realidad son vulnerables a la investigación escéptica: la cabeza y el cadáver pueden haber sido movidos por un sirviente bromista [o rencoroso], la mujer en la ventana y las sonrisas pueden ser muestras de histeria colectiva. Sin embargo, tal vez son exactamente lo que parecen [ver: Casas como metáfora de la psique en el Horror] La sonrisa muerta parece terminar con una nota feliz: Gabriel y Evelyn descubren que son hermanos, se aceptan como tales y la boda se cancelará. El plan siniestro de sir Hugh ha sido desbaratado. El lector sacude la cabeza, se frota los ojos, y se pregunta si todos estos elementos sobrenaturales fueron causados sólo por sugerencias y completados con sus propias expectativas. Sin embargo, tampoco estamos seguros de que sea un final feliz. En efecto, al final Evelyn llama a Gabriel «mi hermano», y se abrazan, pero, en una consideración más detallada, no sabemos qué ocurrió después. Es un final relativamente vago, donde la posibilidad de que Evelyn y Gabriel se casaran más adelante, aún sabiendo que son hermanos, sigue siendo válida [ver: Casa Tabú] De hecho, podríamos preguntarnos si los jóvenes amantes ya sospechaban de su relación incestuosa, autoproclamándose actores condenados de un melodrama gótico. Al principio esperan la «bendición» de sir Hugh [que no obtienen], pero después de la muerte del anciano no hay razón para postergar la boda; sin embargo, la postergan durante varios meses. Más aún, F. Marion Crawford no hace mucho por ocultar que hay algo extraño entre Evelyn y Gabriel; más bien todo lo contrario. La insinuación de que son dos hermanos a punto de contraer un matrimonio es bastante obvia desde el principio Si bien este final seguramente resulta artificial o insatisfactorio para el lector moderno, es importante mencionar que Francis Marion Crawford estaba derribando el final convencional de las novelas góticas, el cual generalmente involucra alguna forma de incesto involuntario y cuya revelación conduce a la locura o el suicidio de alguno de los protagonistas. Al hacer que Evelyn y Gabriel sobrevivan a esta prueba, F. Marion Crawford no solo está desafiando un motivo común en la literatura gótica, sino que no les hace perder la razón [o la vida], sino que les permite recuperarla. En efecto, Evelyn y Gabriel no enloquecen ni son empujados a una furia homicida al descubrir que son hermanos: se abrazan y siguen adelante. De este modo, una maldición familiar puede ser vencida por la fuerza de voluntad; los pecados del padre pueden ser absueltos por la resolución del hijo. Uno no puede simplemente aceptar que los errores de nuestros padres se perpetúan invariablemente en nosotros. No podemos refugiarnos en la predestinación. Sin embargo, F. Marion Crawford no cierra la puerta a una interpretación inversa: Evelyn y Gabriel se reconocen como hermanos, se abrazan y siguen adelante... como pareja. Ahora bien, el elemento central del relato es la «sonrisa muerta», este rictus que vemos en el rostro de sir Hugh y luego sobre los labios de Evelyn y Gabriel. ¿Se trata de una maldición familiar? ¿De un rasgo degenerativo en la familia? Si es así, ¿por qué la centenaria nodriza Macdonald también lo tiene? ¿Acaso ella también es la hija bastarda de algún Ockram? Ciertamente es curiosa la presencia de esta mujer centenaria que cuidó a sir Hugh cuando era un bebé, y que ahora está maternalmente presente en su lecho de muerte. De hecho, la nodriza MacDonald intenta que sir Hugh confiese su «secreto» [que ella sospecha y calla] para que su alma descanse en paz. ¿La malevolencia de sir Hugh, queriendo hacer sufrir eternamente a sus mujeres a través de la unión incestuosa entre Evelyn y Gabriel es una especie de castigo a su verdadera madre? Quizás la señora MacDonald es su madre después de todo, quizás no. Nunca lo sabremos [ver: La Casa Embrujada como representación del cuerpo de la mujer] ¿Y qué hay de la banshee con la cara de Evelyn que aparece en la ventana? Casi con certeza es el fantasma de la madre de Evelyn, seducida y abandonada por sir Hugh. La sonrisa muerta de F. Marion Crawford tiene una cadencia singular, pero el horror de la historia no está unido de manera explícita y coherente. Evelyn parece decididamente lenta en la comprensión de las insinuaciones de la señora Macdonald, aunque dada su declaración final, tal vez deberíamos concluir que no se permitió darse cuenta de talas implicaciones. Uno se pregunta sobre el plan de sir Hugh. Causó de alguna manera la obsesión de Gabriel, pero calculó mal la intensidad apropiada para hacerle descubrir el documento solo después de haberse casado y engendrado hijos con Evelyn. A propósito, ¿cómo terminó el documento en manos del cadáver? ¿Acaso sir Hugh dispuso que algún sirviente lo colocara entre sus manos tiempo después de ser inhumado en la bóveda? Esta sería una explicación lógica, pero sabemos que las cosas se mueven solas en esa cripta todo el tiempo, como la cabeza inquieta de Vernon Ockram.

Today we have another American hero for you, dear listeners. Francis Marion may look like a doofy bastard, based on the drawings of him, but when a bunch of limey redcoated assholes showed up on his front porch, he put boot to ass until they were no longer a problem. He was so good at it he became something of a mythological figure and got a ton of stuff named after him. Enjoy!

Coach Chelsea speaks with Jeri Porter on her faith and love for God and Servant Leadership. Porter was named to the position on May 11, 2015, and made an immediate impact. Inheriting a squad that lost 20 games the year before and was picked to finish next to last according to the pre-season Peach Belt Conference coaches' poll, she directed the Patriots to a 24-9 record, a No.23 national rankings, and an appearance in the NCAA Division II Elite Eight. That squad produced one All-Conference performer and one PBC All-Academic Team selection. During her second year, FMU went 18-12 and placed second in the Peach Belt Conference's East Division. The Patriots advanced to the PBC Tournament semifinals, one player earned All-Conference honors, and one garnered Academic All-Conference recognition. In 2017-18, the Patriots posted a 16-12 mark and saw two players earn All-Conference honors and one pick up All-Region and All-America accolades. In 2018-19, FMU went 12-15 with one player gaining All-Conference and All-Region honors, and during the 2019-20 season the Patriots were 14-13 and featured a pair of All-PBC performers. Altogether, Porter has 21 years experience as a collegiate head coach – 11 at the NCAA Division I level and 10 at the Division II level – and has recorded a 294-300 career mark. She came to Florence after spending the 2014-15 season at Georgia State University as an assistant on the Panthers' staff. Porter's first head coaching position was at Division II University of North Alabama, where she posted three winning marks in four seasons, including a 21-7 record in 1999-2000. That squad captured the Gulf South Conference East Division title, while Porter garnered conference Coach of the Year recognition. She was named the head coach at Radford in 2002 and led the Highlanders to 93 wins in six seasons, including a pair of 20-win campaigns and two second-place finishes in the Big South Conference. Her 2007-08 squad was 23-12 and earned a WNIT invitation. In 2008, she accepted the head coaching position at George Mason University, where she remained until 2013. Porter increased the Patriots' win total over her first four seasons (from four to 15 wins). During her time in Fairfax, she also created and directed the Jeri Porter Girls' Basketball Camps. Her final two squads posted a cumulative team grade point average of 3.09. Porter is a 1991 graduate of Liberty University, where she earned a B.S. degree in psychology. She garnered first-team All-Big South Conference honors as a senior and was twice named her squad's most valuable player. She was inducted into the university's Lady Flames Hall of Fame in 1998. She began her coaching career at her alma mater serving as an assistant coach for six seasons, during which time the Lady Flames won two conference tournament championships and advanced to the 1997 and 1998 NCAA Tournaments. She married Michael Porter of Manassas, Va., in 1997 and the couple has a son (EJ, age 20) and a daughter (Jada, 11). Her son plays basketball at Messiah College in Mechanicsburg, Pa. Porter is the 13th head coach in the storied history of the Francis Marion program. The Francis Marion program has an all-time record of 897-499 in 48 seasons and ranks 12th among all NCAA Division II institutions in total wins. The Patriots have captured two national championships, the 1982 AIAW Division II title and the 1986 NAIA title, and also advanced to the 1998 NCAA Division II Final Four. The program made five straight NCAA Division II Tournament appearances between 1997 and 2001, and four consecutive appearances between 2008 and 2011. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/chefranjohn/support

Known for his guerilla warfare tactics and psychological cunningness, Francis Marion came to be known by his infamous moniker, The Swamp Fox, by both allies and adversaries.
