They weren't willing to travel and the negotiation ended there. We booked AHP instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because they seem like they want no parts of this southern heat lol. They can travel to Jersey and Texas, but not GA or FL? Hmmm.....

Way i see it if they pay your entire travel bill you wouldn't lose any more money then the mandatory travel for District games Just curious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How come that was only a one year Did AHP only want to travel then free up a game in 2017 or was that only what they could agree on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that Gorman makes more money hosting and paying a travel bill to FL teams than it would cost to fly there As for GA I'm surprised, i guess GA don't offer enough money to peak Gorman interest and aren't paid enough by Gorman to travel themselves Game needs a 3rd party to ease costs I'm guessing(like ESPN) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a much easier trip compared to what BG would've had to undertake. Another example of how much easier it is for teams from bordering states to visit the SOWEGA region for these games. Couldn't a 3rd party corporation (like ones that do kickoff specials convince both to face off) Edited February 24, 2018 by Columbiafan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't worth it. And may never be. Guess Gorman will have to offer more money to get GA to come to them Or maybe play a Atlanta team (like Grayson perhaps) where it wouldn't be as long a bus ride after landing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but don't they have to travel for a few games on their schedule And how does valdosta and Camden County do it but colquitt and lowndes can't? I thought valdosta and Camden also have good fanbases but that hasn't held them back from traveling for games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Columbiafan Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 Just now, GardenStateBaller said: Which two travel often to non-bordering states? IMO none of the four above have traveled significantly of late other than Valdosta vs Chandler a few years back. Maybe not much on non bordering but if I saw correctly lowndes has never left the state and when last time colquitt did At least valdosta and Camden County have both done home and home I just don't understand what's different that keeps those 2 from traveling when 2 similar schools can without too much trouble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's better than nothing! Yes when they are top tier I'm good with it Like when Grayson hosted IMG like when Colquitt hosted AHP Now i did have issues with morons like rab bragging about playing close with AHP Idgaf if it's close, loss is loss and you were at home, if you got home advantage like they have and get blown out you have no business claiming yourself as elite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
