Any thoughts about new Commission Kevin Warren's 1st year on the job?

Emotions run fast and furious when news first breaks. I'll admit it. Saying that we don't care is not true. We all know that revenue runs thru Football and Basketball and that feeds the lifeblood of all sports. I've said it before, I've got kids that play collegiate soccer (not at Purdue), but I know how important all the Olympic sports programs, band and all other clubs are at Purdue.
Am I frustrated? Absolutely, more so now than ever if Big12, SEC and ACC make a go of it and complete their seasons. This is financially driven from Personal Injury Lawyers and not having protection to the institutions.
While it may seem like I'm your enemy, I'm really not. I want young Americans to live a normal life now more than ever. It is simple as that. There will be others who want to trash me as well with my responses, but I've got thick skin.
kudos to you for such a level-headed, rational response to such a caustic, unreasonable accusation.
(It's an illustration of the emotions driving the reaction to the panic porn.)
I've not done very well with that lately. I need to work on that. To get better.
If they could opt out, it would not shock me one bit. Bigger question is how does the NCAA handle that?
Can you let conferences poach other players and let them play? Seems like this will become very interesting in these unchartered waters. How about a coach or two that wants to move on quickly?
Hopefully, any potential cannibalizing gets stopped quickly.
To be honest, I'm not doing well in this COVID culture either. 5-6 months in and all I see are pillars crumbling around us. Travel, Entertainment, Education on-line, Work from home, Businesses both large and small getting crushed, relationships with family and friends is caustic, etc etc. Isolation is downright sad. I'm sure the other half have similar views.
I think the teams that do play are going to lose their shirts financially. No way are they letting fans in. No fans = no sales. No gate revenue and I think operating costs will make them in the red?
speaking of red and the commish, he isn't too happy w/ Nebraska and their defiance right now. Article on yahoo sports.
The key(and driving force) is likely the TV money. I'm still not convinced we'll see games this fall, regardless of the conference.
He made a good decision. Thought about players welfare and health first. Saved Purdue from another embarrassing football start. He is a credible and sensible man. Unlike some who have too much bad alcohol to drink.
Same guy. He made a smart and sensible decision just like the PAC 12. He lacks a bit of polish though. When they came out with that schedule they should have made it very clear that this was contingent on playing football in the fall which had not been voted on. Pushing it to spring just delays a further decision.
What has Mitch said about the data? Not sure what you're arguing. Pick some of the data. Any of the data.
No COVID deaths a week ago for ages 0-24. Only 5 (nationally) the week before.
Help me understand what your problem is with that data.
