Your SEC conference may well be the saviour, AB. They’re the only group strong enough, with enough common sense to tell the NCAA and other PC conferences to stuff it.
These athletes don’t get sick. If they do, they don’t know it. If they contract COVID, they may sit a week. Virtually NONE are harmed by it. Older fans will be advised attendance may be unwise.
The NCAA has tenuous control over college sports, as it is today. This will be the beginning of the end if they get it wrong, which is almost assured.
None of this addresses the money issue, which is yuuuuuuge.
If you listen to the local sports and national shows they sound like a bunch of libs. All worried about getting the flu and dying when these athletes are the last ones to worry about.
The Big 10(Ohio State) is also pushing hard for a season. We have 5 home game scheduled and 4 away. Had to sacrifice early season “national title” game with Oregun to sound reasonable, and tossed non-conference cream puffs. but start September 26 with Rutgers. LOTS of money involved. NCAA must yield, or fold.
Maybe. The word around Tuscaloosa and Auburn is the SEC is gonna cave.
We’ll see. No one can stand up to the pressure.
Everywhere I look, former heroes have their tails between their legs.
It’s disgusting and saddening.
What does the Security and Exchange Commission have to do with anything on this thread?
