Wouldn’t that asterisk still be there if NC State fielded an incomplete team? It’s not like the NCAA would put the CWS on hold for a 2 week quarantine. It’s a tough call for sure.
Well, they should not have made the NC State team to go without a full team. As Clay Travis pointed out on Outkick, people praised Michael Jordan for playing with the flu. The flu is much more likely to hurt young people than Covid is. The whole thing is ridiculous.
