If you are a college coach...why would you want a season?

No season means no firings.  It means if you were on the "hot seat" that seat will be much less hot after a non-season.  

This is like a free pass for a lot of coaches.  No school is canning a coach right now and eating that contract while having to also pony up for a new contract for a new coach.

I agree.

C'mon!  People needed to eat at Olive Garden and go to the beach and create new sovereign nations!  All those things were the most important thing ever!

 
I wonder how long they are going to wait.  Students will be back on campus soon, probably about 2-3 weeks.  Do they wait for them to get on campus before they make an announcement?

Isn't that going to be inevitable when we don't have a solid grasp on how to treat this particular virus?

I know changing tactics can be frustrating, but when it's being directed by experts (and not politicians) it's going to be for the best.

That's science. The more studies and data come out, the more we are able to change, refine, and adapt our tactics to combat it.

I get that some people can get tiredhead from this, but what scientists are doing now in a scant four months of so took years to accomplish during the Spanish Flu and Polio outbreaks. I mean, we already have promising vaccination tests going on from two different companies--folks would have killed for a vaccination for the Spanish Flu, or a vaccination in four months when Polio was running rampant.

Oh wow, next you're going to point to empirical evidence by other nations that mandated mask wearing and how their COVID numbers are vastly superior to the United States. 

Typical for the fake news to look at science and facts, which have a well known and long established liberal biases.

100% agree, that is why I used the word evolving.  Every time I think we are good, more bad news comes out.
