- No games would be held on campuses, instead moving the entirety of the schedule to neutral sites, which are still to be determined.

 

Boo. This is what Frost was talking about with the damage to local economies.

Hey...at least it's something and in the middle of the winter about the time I'm going to be going stir crazy.

 

However, I still fail to see why they need to wait till January instead of starting like September 15th or October 1st.

But what else are they supposed to do?  These people make their living off of Husker football.

I think his comment was around the actions of the Big Ten office and university presidents, not the actions of the local media and business owners.  I could be wrong though. 

 

Yes I was commenting on the Big 10s terrible handling, not others.

There is a side of this that the Big Ten isn't even thinking about.  If they would have started football in the next couple weeks (like normal), they could have really helped research into this virus/disease.  All Big Ten schools are research colleges.  All are associated in some way with a teaching hospital.  All programs would be tested regularly.  I've even seen some talk about testing every day.

 

More research needs to be done on the spread of the virus.  What a better situation than a group of healthy young people who openly want to participate in an activity that might spread the virus and would be tested very regularly?  This is the perfect situation for these research hospitals to put a program together to learn more about the virus.

 

But....hey....Gotta wait till January for some reason.

That's what they are trying to move towards, earlier in this thread it was posted some ideas as to how it might be structured.
