bugeater17 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 I think it is starting to look bleak. The Ivy League is expected to announce moving the season until Spring 2021. Could be the first to set off a chain reaction like they (the Ivy League) did with conference championships in basketball. https://theathletic.com/1911122/2020/07/06/will-college-football-season-actually-happen-this-fall-ivy-league/ Quote Link to comment

WyoHusker56 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 I'm really losing faith that we get a fall season and I have no idea what I am going to do with my life without football in the fall. That's like the only reason I like fall. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

Toe Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Michigan article, but it's as much about the Big Ten as anything: https://www.si.com/college/michigan/football/michigan-football-wolverines-2020-college-football-season-in-doubt-inside-information-jim-harbaugh Quote One coach I spoke to noted that in discussing the upcoming season with a former colleague in the SEC he was surprised to hear that a straw poll among the staff of that southern school had overwhelming expressed concern about moving forward with workouts and (soon-to-be) team practices. "They've had a large number of positive COVID tests and not everyone is asymptomatic - you may find this hard to believe because we're football coaches and supposedly we're all fire-and-brimstone, rub-dirt on it, run-through-brick-wall personality types, but there is very real concern about our exposure, taking it home to our families, spreading it through our communities and impacting our loved ones," this U-M program insider shared. "No one is excited to travel. No one wants to get on a plane. No one wants to stay in a hotel." One Big Ten school in the West Division supposedly has a tentative regional schedule in place, including, according to a source at that school, "multiple games against FCS schools." Other Big Ten schools are thinking about scrapping the year altogether. "The most disappointing thing is the complete lack of leadership from the Big Ten and NCAA - I think the leaders are scared to death about taking responsibility and so it's every school president and athletic director for themselves," a Michigan coach said. Wouldn't surprise me at all if we're that West Division team. Moos & co do at least seem to be taking a lot of initiative with this stuff. Might end up playing all the Dakota schools? 1 Quote Link to comment

There's a reason other nations are shutting their borders to America. Our response to this virus has been a joke. Other countries are going to have sports this year. It's not likely we will - at least, not college football. And if there's no college football, how are other schools going to afford their other sports? And if those other schools don't play, Nebraska doesn't play, either. 2 Quote Link to comment

Gonna be really easy to negative recruit teams that try and play at all costs and one of their kids get sick. Just have to tell Mom, that Coach ____________, really only cares about his bottom line, and the kids/their health - really don't matter. If we're trying to put together a schedule against the Dakotas, just scrap the thing. Quote Link to comment
