Hey Flotech do you know if Vero Beach is playing Columbia This year?

Not unless Vero is willing to travel

 

Columbia is insistent on getting both their openings at home this year since apparently we already have 5 road games and Columbia tries to keep their schedule at 5/5 minus stuff out of their control (hurricanes)

 

Now if Vero traveled this year Columbia would return trip next year

Columbia usually gets around 3k attendance a game (estimation) at 7 bucks (average)

 

Thats at least 21k plus parking and concessions so playing it conservative it's around 25-30k per home game 

 

A trip to Vero Beach would require 2 charter busses, the rates we had going to IMG last year for KOC was around 5-6k but IMG paid that entirely plus some money left over

 

Rate to Vero Beach (6 hour trip vs 4 hour trip) likely around 7-8k

 

So for Columbia to break even (by not getting a home game in the deal) Vero Beach would have to pay Columbia anywhere from 32-38k 

 

I doubt Vero Beach would offer half that when they can get someone in central FL for a lot cheaper

Well I guess it's worth a shot, how high you think Vero would be willing to offer a team to travel to them?

or maybe it wasn't.  Naples offered 3500 recently to a school to play.  What they pay others IDK but hard to imagine with attendance today anyone in Florida is offering 10K.

Niceville if I remember correctly has a nearly 8k seat stadium and usually sells it out

 

If anyone could pay that kind of fee it's them

    • Agree with what you think mostly, except I'd use a 4 year average and only move the top team in each region up and bottom team in each region down based on that average. I think 4 years gives a better overall picture of a program.
    • What this means is we will soon see one of two scenarios play out in the coming years: 1) A subset of students will eventually not be able to attend a "good" school because there is simply no space for them due to there being a scarcity of "good" schools 2) Assuming compulsory attendance remains a thing, we will see longtime elite private high schools nosedive in performance. The schools can not perform magic: unmotivated, unprepared often defiant students will NOT be good students no matter what the school does/doesn't do. And oftentimes these sorts of students do have parents who will do the absolute bare minimum needed to get the kid into a private school through the new rules. Anyone who genuinely believes that the schools with higher test scores automatically do a better job of teaching the kids than schools with lower scores is an imbecile. 
    • Here’s a scenario that will cook your noodle. There’s an 11th grader at a D rated public school. Lives in a bad neighborhood with a single mom and a bunch of siblings. Dirt poor, and struggle just to eat and keep the lights on. He can’t get a part time job to help out because he has to watch his little siblings while his mom works.    The school he plays for has poor attendance at the football games, and is always bad. He is a super star for them and tons of new bandwagon fans start to attend the games because they are good and he is the reason. School is making tons of new money.    Season is over. Back to reality for him. School year is over. Summer hits. Some “runner” on behalf of the rich local private school “offers” his mom, him, and all his siblings a way out of poverty. New place to live, food on the table, and an opportunity to get a quality education and maximize exposure for all the top colleges to see. A once in a lifetime opportunity to get his family out of poverty. What say you? Does he say no and continue to barely survive, or does he take the deal? 
    • To make it short and sweet. I am against breaking the rules. If there is a rule that seems outdated or unfair then it should be amended/changed/repealed with majority rule 
    • I am a huge proponent of innocent until proven guilty, and due process with credible evidence. I support a credible investigation, and not some witch hunt by disgruntled folks both near and far from the program. Let’s hope they can get to the bottom of this quickly
