Which is true, but then it begs the question - why are there 130 teams in D1 when half of them have zero chance of winning a championship? College football's structure is weird. It is weird. The P5 should break away and form the top division. G5 forms their own and has their own championship. I'd watch that in a heartbeat. Competition on the same level is always entertaining. I think it meant the P5 pays the athletic budget of many schools with those OOC games. No games means no budget, no budget means no season. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

I'm pretty sure he meant they can't afford to actually have a season once they lost all their money-making games. Which I think is what you are saying. As to the structure, it is kind of odd Quote Link to comment

Players who opt out can keep the scholarship and get a medical redshirt. For next years NFL player the redshirt won’t matter, and they will not play in the Spring anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment

And, why would it get better? School is starting in most places, next week. The places that are no remote learning are going to create new cases. Fall sports at the HS level are going to create new cases. 2 Quote Link to comment

teachercd Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 L A M E But expected. Special thanks to the people that needed a haircut, that HAD to have their freedom nachos, that HAD to show how tough they were, that HAD to let us know it was a hoax, that HAD to peacefully protest, that HAD to form an autonomous country. 5 Quote Link to comment

Exactly. Let's not forget about the deaths but I don't want to turn this into subject matter for another thread. It's not what I want but just cancel it already. The season is a month away and the Covid numbers aren't going to nose dive by then. Unless they can bubble every P5 team like the NBA is doing which isn't going to happen. Quote Link to comment

No kidding, it was nice to see the schedule and sort of think about what might be...but come on, we know this is over. I have practice tomorrow, I am shocked we have not cancelled yet. Coaches will be masked up...while 200 players 9-12 will not be. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Zero leadership on all levels and I mean ALL levels when it comes to handling Covid. People like you mentioned as well not doing there part. S T U P I D. 2 Quote Link to comment
PaulCrewe Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Presidents cancel a season in which pretty solid testing procedures are in place, but gladly will welcome how many students to their campuses, living in dorms, eating in the cafeteria, attending classes etc based on what an honors system 2 4 Quote Link to comment
