bulldogbacker Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Really? Nothing like going to Mansfield for a State CHampionship Game!! Nothing against them, but really!? At least go to Waco or SMU! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirtFalcon Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 I don't like going to Waco, unless it's at Floyd Casey Stadium. Cowboy's Stadium is fine, probably the only time I will ever see any games there is high school playoff games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxFight Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 don't get me wrong, Vernon Newsom is a REALLY nice high school stadium...but I don't like putting the small schools there...Its like congratulations you've made the state championship, while 3a, 4a and 5a get to play in the stadium every kid in Texas dreams of, you get to go play in a high school stadium. I would've like to see the UIL try to get at SMU or something of the sort. I was at the Carthage-Graham game there and I thought it was a great atmosphere for a high school game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackflag79 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 11,000 seats does sound a little small for some 2A schools. I've seen some 2A teams that could definitely having standing room only on their side, especially at a championship game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe its just me but Id rather have a standing room only place to play state game than a 60% empty one... Another thing I could care less where Tatum plays the next time they make it to state.

It wouldn't matter if they played in a pasture somewhere just so long as they are playing for a championship. :thumbsup: I also don't mind a stadium that is not too big, either, but I do like the idea of having enough seats where everyone will be able to sit, though.

Smoaky Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I was in Dallas on business on Monday and I drove past Mansfield's Stadium. It is very impressive. This information about the state championship sites came down about the same time and I can easily see why they're hosting championship games.

Smoaky Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 And, I'm on record as wanting the games to be played based on who is playing, with coaches agreement than determined sites. BUT--as a former military brat, I'm used to change, so let's see how it goes. Smoaky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
player73 Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 most of the other sports championships are played in austin at predetermined sites so why the fuss in football.this way gives the kids in the upper classes a chance to play in the best stadium in the world even if you dont like jerry jones.JMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll tell you this --- I don't care if its Mansfield, Mexico or the back yard of someone's house.......If I'm coaching or playing in the State Championship game I really don't care where it is.

cotton84 Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 I have been to Mansfield to see a game, and it is really nice. But what is going to be bad is that a lot of the 4:00 game people, along with some "neutral" fans will already have a seat by the time the big schools(Daingerfield, Tatum, Crockett, whoever) gets to the stadium. And people who already have a seat will not be getting up to let someone else have it. Would be ashame for an every game fan to have to sit near the goalline or worse, not get a seat.

easttexan Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I understand why the UIL uses predeterminded sites, but I my personal opinion I would rather the site be determined by the school districts in the championship game. This could be a disadvantage for one team or the other. For example in the 2008 5A Div. II game, Wylie vs. Katy, the game was played at Reliant Stadium in Houston, which was basically a home game for the Tigers who were just right up the road. Also, what if the teams playing are both in the same area, lets say the San Antonio area for example, the game could bring in a lot of support in that area for both teams, but with the predetermined sites they would have to both travel to the metroplex. I understand for the entertainment/marketing part of the business, but would rather it be the other way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you wholeheartedly, but you misunderstand what the UIL is doing if you think this has anything to do with what is best for the teams (kids), and communities involved. The new slogan of the UIL is simple: :nowhearthis: SHOW ME THE MONEY $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :nowhearthis: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
