Gate City Schedule

[Queue 19]

 Mars needs women!!!

 

And apparently, from another thread -- Gate City needs games!!!

 

 

So I'm pretty sure the M7 stays intact moving forward, which gives us the usual 6.  It's pretty obvious any change likely starts with discontinuing Radford.  But if the poster (SXSW) did indeed mean games plural -- then who else is going away (out of Richlands, Marion, and Lebanon)??  And just as importantly:  Who are the most likely replacement candidates (schedule opportunities permitting)??

I know the Radford deal is up and I think Marion is too! Everything else is set I believe. I think that, as long as, Richlands wants to play Gate City will plat them. Lebanon just started this year and that was a 2 year cycle and if GC is good you want that gate that the game brings because they travel well.

All cycles renew next year.  This is the second year of the Lebanon/GC contract.  GC played at Lebanon last year.

I think dropping Marion would be a dumb move IMO. The travel isnt great but outside of VA high I am not sure anyone else in the SW would be any better. That would be a class 2 school that they should win most of the time. GC is 4-1 in the last 5 games 2 of those have been one score games and the spring ball matched looked like big noon kick off with two big 12 teams that forgot how to play defense

So was the one two weeks ago!!

 

 

As for partners, if we had the magic scheduler where you could simply say "we choose you", here are the 3 -- yeah, three -- who I'd slot in for travel purposes:

 

Radford, Richlands, Marion out.

 

In comes the full return (and expansion) of the greater Bristol area -- (Battle, of course...plus) Virginia High back on the schedule, along with the rekindling of our brief affair with their rivals from the Stone Castle.  And the piece de resistance...Sullivan East -- who I'm not sure we've ever played.

 

Certainly none of those (even East) are necessarily close to cupcakes at this stage -- but like I said, travel would decrease considerably...and basically, Bristol would be your second home!!  A little getaway cottage by the lake, if you will.

So your saying, you need some side trips to the casino?
