Loved watching Babb on D as he worked so hard at it and was good. You got to see him a lot as he was regularly on the other team's best player. Holding them below their scoring average, or making them take more shots to get it, was a regular thing. As a three point shooter, I remember him as streaky. He could get hot and nail several in a row and in big moments too, but I wouldn't call him one of our all time greats there.

I am going to say that I would absolutely love to see these two playing together, ripping opposing backcourts to shreds.
I remember the last time we had two true point guards starting on the court together. They worked well. This pair would be better.
What are you implying he might do? Did they cancel the high school basketball season?
Incorrect- if a school goes 100% online they cannot participate in sports. This happened in Ames to start the year. Either 100% in-person instruction or hybrid model allows a school to continue to have extracurriculars

Again, I think that is if they have the waiver. No one got a waiver early the year.
The “waiver” is for those online hours to count towards the number needed to meet the states guideline of hours taught in the classroom. Ames received a waiver to start the year because the county positivity rate was over 20% but they couldn’t hold extracurriculars. Once they moved to hybrid model they were able to have sports and clubs again.
DM Schools received a waiver for 100% virtual instruction that begins today and goes through the end of the month, but they are not able to hold practices or play games during this time.

Just read an interesting article about COVID and schools not meeting versus restaurants and bars being open. Turns out schools with proper social distancing in place, are quite safe.
Indoor restaurants and bars, not so much.
Trust people to react bass ackwards.
Honestly most schools that have gone virtual now are having trouble staffing at this point. That's the issue.
You mean, besides the fact that kids aren’t learning as well, and a parent has to stay home instead of working?
If there aren't enough teachers and staff, who do you suggest supervise the kids at school?
I have four family members in their 60’s who are retired teachers and they have had multiple districts call begging them to sub. The youngest, 62, finally agreed but she probably has more preexisting conditions than the other three.
From a sport standpoint, there was an article on WHO website that CIML is proposing statewide that HS winter sports not start until Jan 1. Not sure if that means practices or contests, but probably a good idea with family gatherings between T-Giving and New Years to move schedule back.
Schools were shown to be relatively safe back in spring/summer when many European and Asian countries had schools opened and weren't finding much transmission among students. I don't know why most of the country continues to ignore this.
