Will the BIG10 Reverse Their Decision?

Notre Dame going online for 2 weeks to slow the spread.

Given that an idiot friend of a friend of mine on Facebook keeps posting that wearing masks is worthless, and we shouldn’t be stupid enough to do what the government tells is to do—and this seems to be a fairly prevalent opinion—I’m guessing the answer is “no”.

For some odd reason, I feel a need to point out that there is no constitutionally guaranteed right to stupidity.

Actually there is pretty much in the first line. Pursuit of Happiness... Seems to me that lots of things that make a person Happy are probably not the smartest/ideal things.

I think it is to late for big 10 to reverse decisions. Also hope this affects their recruiting

The qwaks are reported to have a final four basketball team , hopefully big 10 cancels the men's basketball season.

I don't see how it doesn't. They literally gave the entire conference the death penalty. SMU took 1 year off and never recovered

I think it may have lasting effects. Also covid is not going anywhere in 2021. So will they cancel that season also. Especially some programs are expected to lose 10s of millions of dollars.

Does that mean he's hired an agent or otherwise made himself ineligible should they play this year?

Those are two very different scenarios.

There will be some steps back and I'm curious to see what the consequences are for the schools but if Penn State can win a conference title 5 years after one of the biggest scandals ever and Baylor can go to the Sugar Bowl, these programs will figure out a way to come back.

Honestly don't know for sure.. He never mentioned that in his message.

I always hate the 'the death penalty killed smu" line that has been used to keep that kind of punishment from being handed down again when it probably should have been.

SMU was cheating its ass off. It's more likely the punishment just restored the natural order of things if they had not been cheating, and then conference realignment ensured they'd be down once they lost membership in a major conference.

That list of things you hate is pretty long . . .

The only thing that this would do is remove part of the population that lives in the student housing back home, which would then decrease risk of COVID.

Look at UNC for a prime example. Students are going home, football is continuing on.

Wellll, they do go home ... infected. So, there's that not going well for them or, more importantly, their family.

Doesn't have to be that way

COVID => loss of jobs => no money => having to buy Ramen => can't cook them correctly

There. I did it.

But you took too many steps

It's more like we talk about sales/profits because it's essenti and US profits in my sector are at 5% of normal and every other country nearing 100% of normal.

I'm not going to let someone suggest it's quitting if I don't accept my country languishing in last place.

Just curious. Last place. By what measure?

 

[allday4cy]

Ah yes, the "live with it" approach that morons have pushed this entire time that got us where we are now.

Ah, the coronabro is strong with this one.

Folks in BIG 10 Country are pissed.

Parents to visit Big Ten HQ in search of answers

Randy Wade, the father of Ohio State star defensive back Shaun Wade, expects other parents to join him at Big Ten headquarters seeking answers to why the conference postponed the season.
