70% of losing to NDS and possibly losing big? If you seriously think that’s the case then we don’t belong in a P5 conference being an underdog to NDS. Not saying upsets don’t happen, but to be a Vegas underdog in your mind. Not buying it.

Maybe it can be classified as a protest And it has hoses many of the 2021 HS seniors

I think if 2 or 3 other teams would break with Nebraska for this fall, it would be hard to threaten all 4 with membership than just a single entity. the grant of rights/money legal issue is probably murky no matter how many teams split though.

I think it depends on how the tests were communicated and to whom. The way I understand it, and electronic transfer of health information to/from a health provider is covered under HIPPA. I very well could be wrong, but it seems to be the case when student services send health information to a students PHP, or any HC referral. I would think a positive test would be something anyone would want in their Health care file.

The training departments are carrying out the tests in conjunction with outside testing programs, and would be part of a players medical file, so if pressed on this, schools could find themselves in violation of HIPPA.

You mean the players doing what they have been doing for the past 30 days?

Would the BIG ten be willing to kick out Nebraska if Nebraska went rogue and played a season this fall? I wonder what would happen if Nebraska called Warrens bluff.

If it’s liability mitigation then I guess we have Congress to blame for not passing the Covid-19 liability legislation.

I would second that especially is ACC, SEC, and BIg12 play this fall.

Whatever makes you happy.

Yet here we are with people saying the administration has made mistakes and not allowing for those early mistakes. Do I trust WHO? Not on COVID-19, not with how they handled China and early data coming from China. WHO is an org that downplayed COVID initially. Their funding largely depends on China and they acted accordingly unfortunately. There were countless news stories in February and even into March saying the flu was more worrisome than Covid-19 and the people interviewed were medical experts. The stories ended up being wrong, the President was wrong when he said it also, but to say those stories don’t exist is just flat wrong. COVID is a very serious disease but also not as deadly as medical experts said it was back in April and May. As more data comes in, we learn more about the disease. We now know the IFR is roughly .25-.85%. higher than the flu death rate, but not the 3-5% CFR news stories like to run with. I don’t know why people won’t wear masks indoors after this much time has gone by. And I also don’t know why you keep acting like I advocate for no masks? And Trump also said at the time that it probably makes sense to wear masks for a period of time when Fauci made his comments in April. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.forbes.com/sites/marleycoyne/2020/03/31/should-americans-wear-masks-outside-the-house-dr-anthony-fauci-now-says-maybe/amp/

I think that’s a high probability.

prod....

100% agree with this. Not sure why the secrecy. I think the Potential myocarditis issue is what’s changed many of the univ presidents thinking. It would be great to see if UNMC has research on this to share that makes them comfortable with athletes still playing.

If the BIG cancels, this would make for a pretty amazing 2 weeks of news stories, rumors, innuendos, and scheduling discussions.

I thought he handled himself extremely well during the presser.

https://www.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/rapid-response-was-crucial-containing-1918-flu-pandemic what was done by the federal government in 1918-1919 that we didn’t do this time? from the article posted by the NIH. “If St. Louis had waited another week or two, they might have fared the same as Philadelphia, says the lead author on the first study, Richard Hatchett, M.D., an associate director for emergency preparedness at NIAID. Despite the fact that these cities had dramatically different outcomes early on, all the cities in the survey ultimately experienced significant epidemics because, in the absence of an effective vaccine, the virus continued to spread or recurred as cities relaxed their restrictions.” cities that had things under control, relaxed restrictions, and spread then continued. Unless you want to be locked down until an effective vaccine is commercially available, this is what happens with a highly contagious virus.

Since I use quick type on a mobile phone, I could care less about hitting the apostrophe button, but enjoy life’s little pleasures of pointing out grammar mistakes on messages boards and social media. Everyone has to have something that makes them feel proud.

What do you think the possibility is that the BIG had every intention to pull the plug on the season until all the fan backlash and more importantly, getting feedback from coaches/AD’s that they would explore a non BIG schedule if possible. If the BIG came to the conclusion that schools could legally do that and keep all the revenue without kicking some back to the conference HQ, they may have changed their thinking.

We don’t use the metric system so that’s different. https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/positive-rate-daily-smoothed and be careful saying every other country is doing great now. Parts of Europe are spiking again. We can’t lock down forever, the virus has a 40% asymptomatic rate so it’s hard to stop solely based on testing, Sweden is now doing well with very limited lockdown measures, lots of research now looking at herd immunity being around 25-40% for Covid-19 and could Help explain some of the sudden drop off in hard hit areas (combined with broader use of masks, and population in those areas being more diligent). hope your more educated now. Your welcome

Well, I have to ration my data plan

My data is looking at, researching, and reading journals/case studies on Covid-19 reporting figures and how a country classifies a Covid-19 death in the US vs how they classify one in Canada, or India, or Russia, or Bolivia, UK or any other country that reports Covid-19 deaths. If you thinks it’s all the same then your crazy. and BTw..I didn’t say anything at all about case numbers. So why bring it up to me? I live in the US and disagree with you because your promoting a false narrative with comparing death numbers between countries without giving proper context into what constitutes a death to be considered a Covid-19 death.

Hi, condescendingly asking if I think backed up dead bodies is normal without acknowledging that what I said was factually correct is trying to make my post be something it’s not. So since you didn’t like what I posted, yet couldn’t refute its facts, you decided to try strawman it into me saying it’s normal. I don’t, it’s not, and it doesn’t mean healthcare systems are overrun. I work with many across the midwest, many physicians and surgeons with residency and fellowship colleagues across the south. Systems were stressed, not overwhelmed. If you would like to learn more, let’s take it another thread.

Nice strawman. You sure have a nasty habit of acting like I say things I never said.

By the way I never said pure freedom and your analogy didn’t quite hit the mark you were hoping. Glad I got to play
