It’s riots now- try to keep up boys The two are not unrelated. If COVID-19 hospitalizations spike in those cities with big protests (peaceful & otherwise) it could have a big impact on football this fall. We should know in about 2 weeks. Quote Link to comment
BIG ERN Posted June 4, 2020 Author Share Posted June 4, 2020 Stop the nonsense. It's time to play some football. 1 Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Not sure what this means, if anything. People are going to get this virus, that's about inevitable. We have to figure out what we're going to do about it as a society. 1 Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 I wonder how many college towns could survive a year with no students/games for a year. I would have to think that for a lot of college towns, a home game Saturday (6-7 of them) makes up a huge % of their rev for the year. 2 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 It was time for another cleanup as we were back to arguing about the virus that had nothing (directly) to do with Husker Football. Those posts have been moved to the COVID thread. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

Maybe the government will swoop in with an extended ppp period and can save some of these places. don’t think any football should happen until all states have passed their phases tho. Thinking about no season is like color leaving the canvas Quote Link to comment

He said people like to paint coaches and players in a bad light, and "it's just football" and "we can go a year without playing". But that he has spoken to the business owners around Lincoln, and he is scared what a year without home games would do to the Lincoln community financially. Quote Link to comment

I read that Barry's has over 5,000 people come through their doors on gameday. 5 dollars each, 25,000 right there. 175,000 just at the door for games...not counting the spring game. Think how much each person spends once inside. They can't make that revenue up. There is a reason all those bars (well almost all) open at 8 or 9am on gameday. Quote Link to comment

Even the private ones. We have one nursing home that is 100%. But maybe they came from the hospital already diagnosed. Just wondering what is the thread hold for public knowledge.

hunter49 Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 won't be too hard to guess who is infected, especially known starters who are suddenly missing from practices/games...for 2 weeks. Frost won't say anything either, other than certain guys are "not able to perform"/"under the weather".....you won't see them on the sidelines either, unlike like most guys who are on IR, these guys will be in quarantine.
