Don’t fear TCU followers, it’s faux.
We’re only a couple weeks away from school soccer season, so it’s that point of 12 months the place all people’s often feeling fairly good about their group. I imply, except you’re a fan of a group like Texas or Ohio State, chances are high that is the perfect you’ll really feel about your squad the entire 12 months, after which as soon as the season begins actuality units in and your psychological well being is dependent upon how a gaggle of 18-21 12 months olds play on Saturdays.
At the least that’s how it’s for me.
However TCU followers obtained a scare lately, and doubtless began questioning their group earlier than the season even began, when a put up began going round claiming to be from beginning quarterback Josh Hoover about attending a furry conference.
Now, if you happen to’re not aware of the entire “furry” life-style, let me clarify. “Furries” are individuals who like to decorate up in elaborate animal costumes. I’m actually unsure if it’s a sexual factor or not, although they all the time say it’s not. However they’ve complete furry conventions and meetups and stuff like that. It’s bizarre.
However anyway, the put up purporting to be from Hoover’s IG confirmed a gaggle of furries at a conference:
And naturally, the web ran wild after Hoover was supposedly the primary school soccer participant to return out as a furry:
Fortunately for Horned Frogs followers, the Instagram put up from Hoover is faux.
The unique picture got here from a Reddit put up within the r/furry subreddit (don’t hassle checking it out, I did and it’s a bizarre place) that was initially posted a month in the past.
Plainly a variety of the posts about Hoover being a furry are coming from followers of rival colleges like SMU and Baylor, in addition to the Horned Frogs’ week 1 opponent UNC, so possibly that is their method of getting of their opponents’ heads throughout the offseason. Possibly they’re simply bored and needed to begin a rumor in regards to the opposing QB. Who is aware of.
And hear, I didn’t attain out to Hoover for remark so I can’t say for 100% certainty that he’s NOT a furry. However I can affirm that the Instagram put up going round proper now’s faux.
Truthfully although, I’m an enormous fan of this sort of trolling. Certain, throwing intercourse toys at WNBA video games is humorous, however beginning a rumor that your opponent’s star participant is a weirdo and getting your complete web to fall for it’s kinda hilarious, particularly because it’s fairly innocent.
However no matter whether or not it’s true or not, you simply KNOW that Hoover goes to get every kind of furry jokes thrown his method when he’s on the street. And that looks like the entire level of the put up.
