TheMaximumHornetSting Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 I know HSFB starts this week for us. But the Corky Kell needs some serious Spice added in. Its the same teams every year and damn near the same matchups. Didnt Tucker and Kell play last year? The goal of the CKC is to showcase GA HSFB. But it may be time to consider adding in an OOS team. I know that each school is obligated to sell a certain amount of tickets so that could make it difficult for OOS schools. Which is why I propose we invite Hoover and Allen(Might be a stretch with Allen). Allen travels well regardless as does Hoover. If I remember correct HooverOutlaw stated that they took 10K fans to Texas... if they can do that with Texas then I know they could do better than that with Atlanta. Again this is just a thought but I know Im not alone in my opinion. This would also bring in ESPN. My proposed Matchups: Hoover vs Mceachern Allen vs Colquitt County Buford vs Valdosta Tucker vs Norcross Carollton vs Brookwood Hillgrove vs North Gwinnett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rufus69 Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 First of all....the goal is NOT to showcase Ga HSFB. The Corky Kell Classic is a Charity Fund Raiser for the Corky Kell Foundation. The biggest thing wrong with the CKC in its current form is trying to play football in August in the hottest part of the day in an open stadium. It is not conducive to great attendance. Holding the games inside in an enviromentally controlled atmosphere works pretty well. I just don't see adding OOS teams to the CKC.

Nolebull813 Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 Does anyone know the travel compensation provided by the CKC? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omaha Vol Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 No way a Texas power will travel that far OOS (except, maybe, Trinity). I could see Hoover making the trip, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then as soon as Hoover gets added to the event (hypothetically), you're gonna have some of these guys on here complaining about Georgia playing the same team from a bordering state. And we all know Texas ain't travelling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BG is their go to opponent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HooverOutlaw Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 The reason Hoover plays Georgia is nobody from Alabama wants any part of the Colquitts and Graysons of the world. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Carolina, also. Byrnes went to DLS. Turned out to be the start of a bad run for the Rebels with coach (Bobby Bentley) headed to Auburn, the former HC at Spartanburg, and Bentley's son off with the family to Auburn taking their planned QB out of the mix.

Florida, Ohio, Texas, Arizona, Alabama, South Carolina, played New Jersey in Ireland, New York, Maryland, Illinois, Tennessee, Mississippi, North Carolina, add Louisiana & Virginia this year, & Colorado are all states GA has visited or hosted the last 10 years. Of course the Arizona game was played in Texas though. These are GHSA teams only... no GISA. Oh yeah, and California back in '10 (Crenshaw), and this year (Vista Murrieta).
