Well, GSB is already talking to them. That’s on their coach to not negotiate if he thinks he’s not ready. Is Creekside GA a national power?

The melissa coach has the right to say “no” if he thinks he’s way over his head. These coaches need to do some homework instead of just signing on the dotted line 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GardenStateBaller Posted September 18, 2023 Author Share Posted September 18, 2023 10 minutes ago, pied said: Because the coach has asked for a '24 game, right? If that is filled with an OOS opponent, then they'll need one the following season and are unlikely to find a quality in-state team to play the following season ('25). Our goal is to provide opponents the same week both years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nolebull813 Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 (edited) This would be the speed of Jones or Rockledge. Please don’t find some random obscure team to get their head beat in, and if you are hell bent on it, please don’t bring some garbage FL team just to get a contract signed.

Texasball Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Cocoa has already been playing against some of the best from Florida. see STA Melissa just moved up from 4A and has never played against elite IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imo they won’t get a game v texas elite, not without a title first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolebull813 Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Cedar Grove or Creekside GA seems to be the best bet since they are willing to travel and they are probably in the same area of rankings as Melissa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olu says 1330. Schools are similar size. Olu will be Trinity #3 or 4 next season. There is no reason to duck Olu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
