MAC Cancels Football Season
- Thread starter Boilerbrewer
- Start date
that's a shame, I enjoy watching their games esp. later in the year on thursday or friday nights.
The season's going to get cancelled. Might as well prepare ourselves for that.
Yep I think it's a given at this point. Which makes Rondale's decision "easier" I guess since we wouldn't see him play anyway.
Man this is gonna jack up scholarships for years to come though I fear.
The facts are the facts, the football season is canceled basketball season will not be. It would end probably 30 to 40% of the athletic departments in the United States. So this will not happen there’s too much money at stake. Even the far leaning left Board of Directors knows this. They want to keep their job basketball gets played after football is stopped
I call "B.S."
On second thought, I'm focusing on your word, "supposedly".
I think this narrative changes rapidly in the not-too-distant future.
It was posted today is that the commissioner is pushing for it.
I don't believe for a second we see a Big Ten football game in Sept.
Oh, I'm not disagreeing.
If you're the least bit curious, you should be asking yourself: "what will be different in the spring?"
The answer should be quite obvious.
Remember... ! ...
"15 days to flatten the curve..."
There's no reason to be "hopeful" for a vaccine.
A vaccine won't be the answer.
Moving on is the only answer.
I hope that isn't the case but sadly, you may be right. At this point I would rather see the season moved to the spring. The worst thing that could happen is to play a couple of games and then have the season shut down. That would create an even bigger mess than we already have. Numerous teams have already announced no fan attendance for the fall so perhaps the spring offers a chance to put people back in the stands. If by that time there is still no treatment, it might be inevitable that we are going to have to move on with life.
Well said, unless the university or Conference doesn’t care about their future existence there’s no way in the world they would end or cancel the basketball season? Isn’t it also about employment? How many people will be unemployed, again that’s probably the thing I never hear about. All of the jobs that sees to happen when there is no sports season. It’s a lot of people. The Covid death rate is very very very very very low, the unemployment rate not so much
I’m wondering how the schools are going to make up for all of the lost revenue from this? That’s is going to be a huge problem.
