Trust me, I'm very well aware of that and I have already mentally prepared myself for the many situations that may arise. I've also found ways to have fun without doing anything illegal or suspicious, and I plan on carrying that on into college. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawgGoneIt Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 To be honest, the Corky Kell is a well run event. The match ups got stale over time with basically the same teams competing in it year after year, and some of us Colquitt fans had gotten tired of the trips to Atlanta over and over multiple times each season. The event is televised and easily accessible for the national audience so the exposure for the kids is almost invaluable, especially if your team isn't likely to be televised through other avenues during the season. For instance Lowndes never allowed their games to be streamed, so, unless they made it to the playoffs, or GPB decided to make a trip down, those kids lacked the same type of television exposure. So, for that reason, I'll miss Colquitt participating. The rules requiring a specific amount of ticket sales are what ultimately hurt the series imo. I'm not sure if they've loosened those rules or not, but, for them to manage to keep fresh match ups, some changes will need to be made. Allowing an OOS team is a start.

My complaint (which I made numerous times) was that Colquitt could have used that money bringing in an A+ opponent from OOS for our opening game of each season. We would have had a packed house in Mack Tharpe. I suggested calling it the Babe White Memorial Classic. But...Rush wanted to go to Atlanta. It was a close vote...but I lost. I STILL think it's feasible....and I think Justin should truly consider it. I really didn't wanna hafta turn this over to the BNB outa North Morven....(Smile). However; I am not above doing it.
