Dude, if a single NCAA dies from COVID-19 there will be a huge reform on how we compensate college athletes. Ain't no way you can convince any rational person that college athletes should be asked to risk their lives for a goddamn scholarship.

Do you feel the same about those on academic scholarship?

Teams aren’t going to pull schollies if a kid doesn’t want to risk getting Covid.

In FY 2019, K-State Football Generated $57.593 million in total operating revenue for K-State athletics.

That is 64% of K-State's total operating revenue for FY 2019.

Are they being forced to be up close to others who might have COVID-19?

If KSU doesn’t do entirely online learning, then yes.

Really? Other students are asked to rub their sweaty bodies against others' sweaty bodies?

I think we are going to have to see a lot more before the FBS conferences pull the plug on football. They are deathly afraid to run these athletic departments without football revenue. A season without football will be highly damaging to the athletic departments. I think when they see these pro sports leagues playing they will feel comfortable enough to give it a go.
Pro and college sports are two completely different things. Contracts guarantee stuff on Pro Sports. They only guarantee the conferences in college. Idk

That wasn't my point, I'm talking about operationally.

It seems like it’s gonna trickle out and the NCAA will eventually pull the plug on the season right before it starts. I mean think about the evolution of how the conference hoops tourneys went. The news just kept getting wilder and wilder until ultimately #BigCovid stole KU’s opportunity to compete for the championship out of their rightful hands. 

Btw if by some reason we actually get to play a basketball season but they have to close tge arenas to fans and broadcast games online so we can watch, we better call it Octagon of Zoom lolololol lmao roflmao lolfartbbq

skeebs this post did not get enough attention i l'dmao great stuff

I find this pretty unlikely, but then again, I'm not a computer science professor.

We're going on 2.7 million reported cases so far. Let's say reporteds are 20 percent of actual (which is pretty conservative imo), which puts our actual infection number at 13.5 million.  Let's assume 10 percent of those are in the 15-24 demographic for which we have death totals from the CDC -- which again is pretty conservative given demographics and behavior.

That would put us at about 1.35 million infections for 15-24 year olds.  CDC says 132 deaths so far for 15-24 year olds.  132/1.35m=.0001 of actual infections result in death for 15-24 year olds.

Let's assume 100 players per team and 128 teams = 12800 players.  Let's assume 80 percent of CFB players get Covid (pretty aggressive estimation) = 10,240 infections of CFB players. 

10240*.0001=~1 covid death out of 12800 players.  This assumes CFB players carry the same risks and benefits as the general public and assumes my (what I view as overly conservative) assumptions above are reasonable.

In my defense I'm not a scientist and I never advanced past college algebra and there's a very good chance I screwed up these numbers.
