If they cancel football they need to cancel all on campus classes as well.

If they're afraid they can't handle football with the players under strident healthcare oversite and if they're afraid they can't handle 25% of the normal crowd with months to prepare.   Then they've clearly not fully prepared to have on campus classes. 



absolutely.

and it's really mumped up that they waited until pretty much everyone has started practice to call it as if they didn't know what would happen. This just keeps people from transferring if the SEC decides they're gonna play. I'm guessing the in-person classes will follow suit after they have deposits and some dorm payments.
Difference with on campus classes is that almost all major universities provide a virtual only option so essentially 100% of students can not show up and the show goes on. Can’t have football with zero players.

yeah but a lot fewer students would sign up if they knew it was online only just like a lot of players would try to transfer out of the big 10 if they knew the season was cancelled but the SEC wasn't.

Handling a hybrid classroom environment and handling a football season under these circumstances is not even close to being some sort of magic voodoo unachievable goal.   Particularly with 6 months to prepare.

This is lawyers talking.

What does the Big 10 know now that they didn't know 5 days ago?   Nothing from a health perspective and clearly a lot from a legal perspective.

I think they know they can’t handle football under strident healthcare oversight. They already had a process breakdown at Indiana. They had a kid test negative multiple times, then test positive, get pretty sick & now he has possible heart issues with abnormal blood tests showing heart issues. That they’ve already had a process failure with a potentially major impact keeps getting left out of the Big10 conversation.

Again, P5 athletes; in most cases recipients of better medical oversight and care than 99% plus of the rest of the world.

Incredible bait and switch job by 10 out of 12 BiG presidents.

Props to them for pulling off a huge con job, roping hundreds of thousands of students into on campus classes and keeping football players from transferring.

And we could get back to 12 by telling NU they can bring Iowa with them. And we can sweeten it even further by telling them psych, we're actually going to still be 10 teams because we're kicking out WV and Baylor!

The idea that anyone NEEDS a season is pretty mumped up.

That's my general feeling about Sasse's letter. Do you want football? Hell yeah, do you need it? Um, no. If you need it you got some issues to work through

If we could do that and get Colorado back from the Pac 12, and Mizzou from the SEC, yes please. I'll take two

Maybe, in fact probably. But one danger sports present that on campus classes don’t: getting a bunch of big sweaty people to fly in a big airplane from one area of the country to another so they can rub their big sweaty bodies all over each other and breathe real hard in each other’s faces. And then they get on a big airplane and fly home. “Yes let’s get our Kansas boys from a non-hotspot to fly on an airplane into a ‘rona hotspot to rub sweaty bodies all over people from a hotspot. Then we’ll all go back home. Also a lot of our fans will come, too.”
