Did that word get down to Penn State. They are making ALL students, athlete or not, to sign one:

Then all schools should do this right? Why just Penn St.

Any legal risks for students or athletes in signing one?

Does anyone here really think that we will be playing a FULL season of games. We will get started, and before long, one or two teams will come down with the virus and that will be the end of it.

By moving the schedule back, the Big 12 and the rest are trying to buy time, nothing more.
No, because we've only scheduled 10.

No - their ego won't allow to admit they are wrong.

I read a term today that really hits it on the head - covid protocal and beliefs are "a developing science." Even the experts disagree. What results is a huge inconvenience of a "developing science." Experts and normal people glob onto the science they want to support and have firm beliefs. Both sides grab the research to help them justify their decisions. Nothing shocking - just simple.

Our power 5 conferences did just that - all have access to similar information and three went one way and two went the other way.

@Gorm not sure you want to follow the only school implementing it that had a child rapist and turned a blind eye over it.

I understand. But when you have doctors saying you can "responsibly resume"...? All professional sports have resumed, right?

I guess I'm just curious what you think the Big 12 has done. Found some crack doctors that will tell them what they want to hear? Do you really think they aren't relying on actual medical advice?

I don't think they found crack doctors by any means, but it's easy to get someone to say what you want if you pay them enough. It's no different than a trial where both sides bring in "experts" that say completely opposite things about the same issue.

Link to where I said I was a fan of Pedo state?
you were trying to make a point that Penn St. does waivers for students and athletes playing sports.

I'm pretty sure, correct me if I'm wrong, but that waiver does not include NCAA sporting activities for athletes participating in them. The athletes part in the headline is for when they are in class and on campus for other activities.

If Penn St. wants to say it includes sporting activities, which I don't think it does, a plaintiff can point out the NCAA ruling and that will likely take precedence.

Not exactly sure.

Are people now claiming that the SEC, Big XII, and ACC ADs bought off doctors to say what they wanted? Knowing JPs family health history, I think JP doesn't take kids health lightly.

Yep, I sure did. I used them as an example of a school that is requireing all students, including athletes to sign COVID waivers.

An NCAA ruling has weight in a court of law?

just admit you did not read the article in your tweet and you're wrong in that it does not cover Penn St. NCAA athletes from sports. You read the headline and that was it.

The real question is, did YOU read it. There is no article, it was a document.

i did, obviously you didn't as it mentions nothing specifically about athletes in sports in it.

It doesn't have to. You must be a student to play Penn State sports, all students are required to follow or be penalized.

Shall I continue to connect the dots for you?

Here is one Barrier Rutgers would face if the Big 10 reversed its decision. Visiting teams from certain Big 10 states would have to undergo a 14 day quarantine and the team would have to undergo a 14 day quarantine if returning from one of those states.

In the wake of COVID-19, travelers visiting New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut from certain states around the country will be required to quarantine for two weeks upon arrival.​
States that have a “high infection rate” of COVID-19 or any state with an infection rate of more than 10 per 100,000 residents on a seven-day rolling average are included on the list. The rule applies to travelers that arrive via any mode of transportation.​

U.S. territories including Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands are also included on the list.​
The current list is as follows:​
  1. Alabama
    1. Arkansas
    2. Arizona
    3. California
    4. Florida
    5. Georgia
    6. Hawaii
    7. Iowa
    8. Idaho
    9. Illinois
    10. Indiana
    11. Kansas
    12. Kentucky
    13. Louisiana
    14. Maryland
    15. Minnesota
    16. Missouri
    17. Mississippi
    18. Montana
    19. North Carolina
    20. North Dakota
    21. Nebraska
    22. Nevada
    23. Oklahoma
    24. Puerto Rico
    25. South Carolina
    26. South Dakota
    27. Tennessee
    28. Texas
    29. Utah
    30. The U.S. Virgin Islands
    31. Virginia
    32. Wisconsin
Travelers visiting from the states and territories listed above may be required to disclose where they will be quarantining or face various penalties depending on which state they're in.​
How do you put a home and away schedule together with a list like that?

Ahh yes, this was the post I was looking for. Don't provide answers. Just tell me I'm too dumb to understand. Classic.

Gotta love the respectful discourse you can get on here.

Can't answer a question so you just say "Ur dumb" and move on, because you know you don't have an answer.

I'd again ask you, Mayo and Duke seem to be pretty reputable places, are they not?

THIS x 1 million. They don't have answers anymore, so they just resort to name calling. I mean, it's freaking Mayo Clinic! 1 of the top medical facilities in the world. They are so mad there is a football season I'm convinced they want it and the Cyclones to fail. They will get zero enjoyment out of any Cyclone win. Sucks to be them.
