Basin didn’t want to. They were asked last week and declined. That was according to one of the coaches.

Got to find somebody to play you first.... just be glad we didn’t have George Walton academy from Georgia coming here which was a possibility.... they just cancelled on copper basin according to their head coaches social media because of covid. Crazy times!

Give it up. SP not playing this week. Move on...

You got to find a team willing to play first. That seems the problem. Then if team decides to split gate or cover travel expenses then it can hopefully be done.

Nobody has offered SP anything to travel. Nobody has agreed to even play a game besides Fyffe who backed out when they found a home game. So all your analogy sounds great and I agree on some of it but there has to be a team willing to play first and that has not happened. The problem is no small school wants to play SP and no big school wants to play a small school. SP is not the only team looking for a home game. It works both ways. SP has already played 3 away games already.

From what I was told, there was no limit on that crowd for that game. It was not limited to 2k tickets.

According to Cal Preps on a neutral field they have South Pitt 35 George Walton Academy 17 Obviously you play the game on the field but I’m not sure that they are better than the Pirates.

Gordy and coalfield game is possibly two of the opponents that you would have to beat to get to Cookeville

You guys are looking for game this week and not next week I think. SP lost out on a 30k gate against Jasper and probably a 15-20k gate against Red Bank. We feel your pain. I’ve been living in south Pittsburg my whole life and never have experienced a year like this with cancellations etc..Piedmont has more students in high school than SP. SP is a 7-12 school

South Pitt has only had one home game and that was moved to a thursday because of rain. I am sure they are like most schools and need money to run the program. I’m sure they would consider in providing some travel expense. They have had two home games cancelled in a row.

They have 10 games scheduled already according to their website. 10/2 is their off week. I work with a guy whose son plays there.

Well Fyffe cancelled on us so we won’t know.... no question they are a great team. Won 35 games in a row. Game was scheduled until they found someone else to come to there place. If you know if anymore teams send them to our coaches. We have around 275 students in high school here.

...meigs website says homecoming is the night south pitt plays them

Red bank cancelled on sp because of covid

It would have been a monster gate... no question Fyffe is a great team and probably would have been the favorites to win. They did not give a reason on backing out besides the fact they were able to get a home game instead of traveling from what I was told.

Fyffe agreed to play at south pitt 9/25 last Wednesday and called Friday and said they had decided to not play since they got someone to come to their place to play which according to their schedule now is some team from south Alabama Clarke county. So, yes Fyffe called Vic and backed out since they could have a home game and not have to travel.

Did section have an opening?

Was looking at Times Free Press and The Tennessean and there are just no teams out there to really play. The few teams that looked like they had openings were 4 hours away. Can’t believe no Hamilton county schools available

South Pittsburg needs a game 9/25...

South Pittsburg needs a game 9/25. Don’t think our coaches have found anyone yet.

Lebanon said no.

I was told Coach Waggoner called Lebanon today to see if they were interested and Lebanon had not returned his call as of this afternoon. Our boys need a game against someone.

Yes... Fyffe cancelled so they could get a home game I was told. That was only reason.

Totally wrong... Fyffe called SP and cancelled after They got someone to come play there instead of them having to travel. On unapproved website it looks like Clarke County from South Alabama is going to Fyffe

Well tell her that
