We played at Conway in 2010 and I think it had something to do with UGA moving their game that caused Coastal to back out of the return game. That ended up causing us to grab D2 Tusculum. The AD at the time was pretty hot.
So UGA moved your game and it was Coastal's problem? You guys could have just dropped UGA and kept your game with us if playing us was such a big deal.
Other way around. UGA moved YOUR game which caused the shuffling. I think Coastal had a chance to meet its obligation but didn't want to travel to GS and UGA two weeks in a row so they picked up Catawba at home. I think the whole thing started because the Texas A&M and Missouri changed the SEC schedule for 2012.
Ah ok. We probably could have rescheduled, perhaps not that year but in another. But I do know that practice is fairly common. We've had schools buyout a return game because they had an FBS school either change the date or added or just didn't want to play us again.
Has Ga Southern never bought out a return game?
