The Georgia State Stadium

THE GEORGI A STATE STADIUM Mike Holmes, Associate Athletic Director for Communications, adds that having its own permanent home gives the university community something to be proud of, while also acting as a recruiting tool for potential new student players. He remarks, “Here, we can really make it home – paint a wall blue, or put up a Georgia State graphic. Part of our business is luring 16 and 17-year-old recruits who want to come here and play. We’re working on a trophy room, right now, so when they come in on recruiting weekend, they see that, even though it may only be nine years, there’s still a lot that’s gone on during that time. And that’s been stuff that we weren’t able to do when we weren’t playing in our own stadium.” Hatcher agrees. “This is the home of our football team,” he states in conclusion. “We built them a locker room, coach’s offices, meeting rooms, weight room, training room – our team fully operates out of here. So, any time someone brings a high school junior or senior here, they are showing them this building and getting those better recruits to play for us in order to make us a better team. Mike was talking about the trophy room - we’ve had football for nine seasons now. We’ve been to two Bowl games and we’ve won one. I think that’s pretty amazing.” Home of the Better LED Video Scoreboard I N D O O R | O U T D O O R | A U D I O | C O N T R O L R O O M S 833-533-7267 | sports@formetco.com | formetcosports.com
