Go fund me...

[flow51]

Per the teams that made it to the playoffs I have been asked to start a Go Fund Me page for the Smackover Buckaroos. Sadly it will take every penny that everyone donates just to get their field playable again. With them having home field advantage throughout the playoffs, it will only get worse with each game. Please keep in mind that we are doing this for the kids where no one will have to play in that pig pit. All contributions will be greatly appreciated!

We left it sloppy after Thursday night's game.  It will get worse after each game, but maybe a week off will help dry it out. 

[Proud Buckaroo]

Field has two weeks to dry. Nice try though.

[imtie]

If and when the noles come to town we need it sloppy

With more rain in the forecast it clearly won't dry out in two weeks. Not meant to be a funny post, however others are concerned. Clearly Buckaroos arnt because it has been this way for some time. But hey, it shouldn't matter after the 3rd round... the Rison/mayflower winner will travel to Osceola

[Proud Buckaroo]

It's so funny how many Prescott fans want Smackover to lose so bad.

Maybe this past Thursday night, but I'm sure most are pulling for you guys in that top bracket.  I am.

[WHITEchicken]

Smackover clearly cares about their field condition. That is why they spent so much money this summer installing more sprinklers so the field gets extra wet when we have superior teams coming to play us.

[flow51]

Exactly... if I was from Prescott I would be pulling for y'all to reach the finals! They could get their rematch.

[Sick Dog]

Nice try Smackover. Everyone knows y'all want the "feel sorry for our field" approach so y'all can get someone to agree to move it to SAU or El Dorado so y'all can use your speed on turf. Sorry no one is falling for that trick this time. Why won't yall use Norphlet field?

[Proud Buckaroo]

This person isn't a smackover poster nor are they affiliated with Smackover. So, nice try.

Just move it to Eldorado stadium again I'm sure the Noles will be thrilled.  This sounds like something I heard before back in 2015 involving Crest We know how that turned out.🤣😂

We have a smart coaching staff this go around. Definitely won't move the game away from home...

[WHITEchicken]

Dry warm weather today. I drove by and the field looks worse than Thursday night. I guess the coaching staff left the sprinklers on this weekend.

[Sick Dog]

Good recruiters! Not sure about how smart they are. According to most all you guys bash the play calling. Oh are you suppose to be from Smorphlet to be able to post on this?

[Carljung]

No. You can be a fair weather fan like most of these guys that haven't been around in a couple of years...

[Proud Buckaroo]

Who bashed the play calling? Lol. One time. And we all do it. 

I can assure you aren't referring to me about the fair weather fan. 🤣

How's that field looking PB? Still drying out in the rain?

[imtie]

Well since we haven't go any rain yet.... yes

[flow51]

Well since we haven't go any rain yet.... yes

It's on its way... about 8:30ish

[imtie]

It's on its way... about 8:30ish

we will see hope it goes around

[WHITEchicken]

It rained a little today. The field looks like a cow pasture where the cows ate all the grass and then left after the rains came.

[ea cat]

Just play at norphlet.

[Rida4Life]

Good point... just move it to Norphlet.

[Horse Shoe]

Good point... just move it to Norphlet.

No

[ISU7]

Smackover should be able to beat the Bye No-Shows on a flooded  field 😂🤣

[Horse Shoe]

Flooded or not, both teams have to deal with it.  You don't have to like it, but you have to accept it.

[WHITEchicken]

Looked at it again today. Looks like the pit of misery out there....dilly dilly

Maybe fans from other schools would contribute to fund artificial turf. Then nobody would have to play in the mud.

[1wildcat]

It should be a huge home field advantage for Smackover.

[bleudog]

 Just to make the El Tejas Kid feel at home.

[flow51]

All joking aside... has there been any effort from anyone to improve the field/drainage issues? Anyone from Eldorado or Norphlet have any ties that could donate some money for upgrades? Heck maybe even some turf? Maybe incorporate some kind of school mileage...

[dawgpound]

Hit up some of the oil money around there it wouldn't take long to come up with some money

How much do you need?

[flow51]

How much do you need?

Oldman since starting the "Go fund me"  last week there have been 12 people contribute $22.14. With that being said... if we do a tear out, haul in an elevated pad, and completely redo the drainage (which it needs it all) and go with Turf from FieldTurf out of Independence, MO.... it totals $1,200,000.00. So we still need $1,199,978.86. Would you like to contribute?

[Jimbo Morphis]

I've already made a donation but I had the records sealed. Only your superintendent can see my donation. I was going to pay for the entire deal but some of the old timers killed the deal because I'm from McGehee. Wouldn't let someone from McGehee break the donation record that was set a long time ago.

[Sick Dog]

How much do you need?

A tax increase to support a new turf football field? Good luck with that!
That would not happen in an community. People are jealous of football especially the ones who don't play or have any interest in it. Even some of those who have played don't want to vote for a tax increase to help it. Just stating the facts from what I have heard around every where. Even though it would be for a good cause and help the school and the community.

[flow51]

Yeah that seems to be the problem all around. I tried to donate a complete turn key job last year but there seem to be to many people in their "high HORSE" that shot it down! Said they have enough "big BUCKS".

[Sick Dog]

PM me and we will gladly take that donation at our school and even name the field after you! We would even take a half donation and we will do it. We will even build sky box just for you to sit in each week.

[WHITEchicken]

The yes smack made it to the championship someone in the community offered to turf the field. For some reason it never got done. If a mil is passed for anything I would hope it would be for a new gym.

[flow51]

Atleast they are moving the game to a nicer field!

[WHITEchicken]

Nicer field yeah but away from home hurts.

[flow51]

I think they will be fine this week...  it next week maybe a different question

[Proud Buckaroo]

They decided to build the indoor facility instead.

Gym? Smackover plays basketball?

Indoor facility? With a game field like that??! Sounds like a decision most would make...

PB, you can say what you want, even on the opposite side of War Memorial where I sat a few years ago, I was scratching my head at the play calling. YOU GUYS SHOULD HAVE HOISTED THE TROPHY. Glad to see you guys get a coach who utilizes his talent!
