Cancelling the Big XII tournament

[dafarmer]

With other sports cancelling games around the world, should the Tournament be cancelled or bar fans attendance? The only real effect is going to be NCAA seeding at this point. No, I don't think ISU can win it this year anyway.

No

What's the difference to us? We're not showing up at it anyways.

The sooner this season ends; the sooner we can all move on from this nightmare.

 

[cyclonedave25]

No. Worst case scenario just don’t have fans at the games.

NCAA tournament is probably in more danger than conference tournaments if confirmed cases increase at this rate. Ohio has already asked for no large indoor events - Dayton is hosting the First Four play-in round beginning in a week, and Cleveland has first weekend games right after that. So far the NCAA is noncommittal whether they will listen to the government.

Worst case the NCAA will just have no crowds. Too much TV money to forgo this late in the game

 

[Sigmapolis]

Yeah, at the very worst just play the games to empty arenas. Find a high school gym for them to play in for all I care; TV is what matters here.

Not really. We have at least one more year of this clown car until anything changes.

I think they should cancel all of the post-season tournaments. Or, I should say, that wouldn't bother me.

They are just a recruiting tool that we can't take advantage of.

 

[Rural]

They are done for this year.

This social panic is out of control. So you mean to be telling me all these years pre-corona you haven't been washing your damn hands and covering your mouth when you cough/sneeze?

If the NCAA tourney gets canned, does that just throw out all records, so ISU's can be wiped out?

Yes, the season was incomplete.

First time in history that a majority of ISU fans are looking forward to football season instead of Basketball..

 

[CoachHines3]

little off topic but wouldn't shock me if the ncaa says no fans for march madness

dont think they should do that b/c it would be dumb. watching on tv will be a complete different experience if they do that.

we wont allow 15K fans inside but you can all gather outside in close quarters at bars and restaurants and thats ok.

 

[WhoISthis]

Cancel the Big 12 tournament and I’ll always remember this season as one in which we would have made the NCAA tournament if not for the CV19!

 

[Rural]

They're closing buffets in Vegas and these big crowd situations are going to go on?

I don't think so.

This thing is beyond insane at this point and completely out of control.
