STATESBORO, Ga. - At the end of April, men's basketball coach Mark Byington, football coach Tyson Summers, Athletics Director Tom Kleinlein, the Georgia Southern Athletic Foundation and Ticket Office, University personnel, coaching staff and surprise guests will hit the road for a 3-week, twelve stop Coaches Caravan tour across Georgia, Florida and South Carolina.  

The Caravan will go through mid-May and  host events in Atlanta, Augusta, Charleston, Columbus, Dublin, Effingham County, Evans County, Jacksonville, Macon, Savannah and Tifton.

The 2017 tour will be unlike previous caravans. All Georgia Southern University alumni, fans, donors and friends are invited to attend Caravan events to learn more about recent athletics successes, transitions and upcoming seasons, meet special guests and members of the coaching staff and hear how being part of a team impacts the lives of nearly 400 student-athletes  at Georgia Southern University.

In efforts to raise awareness of the Eagle Fund, Eagle Athletics will be challenging each participating area to challenge each other to see who is the truest blue by donating to True Blue 120.  The area who raises the most money will not only earn bragging rights but will also win a True Blue 120 tailgate at a 2017 home football game. The True Blue Caravan challenge will end June 30, 2017. Donations can be made while purchasing Caravan tickets and at Caravan events. Those who can't make the 2017 Coaches Caravan can make a donation by visiting area-specific ticket pages at GSEagles.com/Caravan. 

Even more, one-of-a-kind raffle prizes such as coach-autographed footballs and basketballs, football helmets and sideline passes will be drawn at each stop!  Department personnel will also be on-site for Eagle Fans to purchase season tickets and make donations to the Foundation in support of student-athlete scholarships.
