They lost me at the big, bold, "NO ALCOHOL ALLOWED" notice.

Never knew they had one of these in Mint Hill. I have heard of the one at Rural Hill called the Loch Norman Games but have never made it out there yet. Think that is held in April.

Let us know how it is if you go.

Yeah, the Alcohol thing is cuz it's a state park, but plenty of drinking goes on.

Loch Norman, yeah that's in April, great games! These things happen all over the state throughout the year, and they are way cool. Kinda like the Renfest if it was actually cool. I played Loch Norman last year, and until the St Pattys day parade this year it was the largest crowd I'd played in front of (Approx. 1k people)

My band is playing the Mint Hill games this year and I was just wondering if I'd run into any huddlers there.

      He should've been more than a JAG, but Jeremy Chinn.  I was convinced he was our next defensive star

      Yeah the only way current set up is fun is if every year a different tiny school builds a super team and makes a run. You just need 1 rich guy to say you know what would be funny, if I drop 30 million and my school has a shot at a national championship.   They won't ever do it but put some sort of tiered salary cap in place and sign them to 4 year deals. You can only transfer up or down tiers no lateral moves because mean ole coach at texas doesn't play me enough so I'm going to Tennessee. So a player at prairie view can transfer to texas and get paid more or a player from UNC can transfer to UNCG because he isn't getting playing time. If a guy is transferring "up" he can get a salary bump if the team has salary cap space. A guy transferring down has to stay at the same salary as he signed his 4 year deal for so the lower tier team would have to have the cap space to sign him. It would stop the money chasing for lateral moves but allow guys who improve massively at lower schools to make more money as juniors and seniors and hopefully keep more guys in one place because the contract is for 4 years.
