Real shame.

"Left behind are seniors such as Evans, Royster and Lake Taylor quarterback Jeff Foster. Their families can’t afford to pay for college, so they’ve spent their lives working toward scholarships. They are the type of solid 757 athletes who expected to earn some type of Division I opportunity, but have received only a couple of Division II or Division III offers. And now they are being squeezed from multiple sides: Coaches can’t watch them play, they can’t visit schools, and fewer scholarships are available because the NCAA has given many college athletes an extra year of eligibility.

“It’s been frustrating, but I’m using it as an opportunity to work on what I need to work on,” said Foster. Said his teammate and best friend Royster: “Hopefully, we get to play in the spring, God willing. Just play our best, hopefully get a late FBS or FCS offer. God already got everything mapped out for me. This is just like a little break. Ain’t nothing I can’t get over.”

But at least they might not get a virus that might hit them with less power than a cold!

 

Sounds like we need free higher public education.

 

Idk... maybe use that for public use and not sports

 

Is there a rapid test that is 99% accurate?

 

Forcing the fans in the stand issue was such an own goal when we couldnt even execute the games themselves without contributing to community spread

 

under development, expected to have a 100,000 test per day production line by Spring

so they want to use 10% of the total available tests on game days so obscenely wealthy people can watch basketball in person (and really so that an even more obscenely wealthy basketball franchise owner can cut his losses on the upcoming season)

 

Repulsive use of money

 

Oligarchy sucks

 

This is true for all workplaces, and yours is far from the most important. Shut the fuck up.

 

Shut it down PAC 12. You had a good run of *checks notes* one week

 

you have to really have your head buried in the sand to think this is all going according to plan

 

Pac12

Conference is a joke

 

Only conference that could manage to not play any games before burning it all down. Came back at literally the worst point of the entire trajectory

 

Larry Scott needs to go

 

the conference may be a joke in certain ways but this is happening because the country is a joke

 

The sec has cancelled 4 of its 7 games it had scheduled

 

More of a joke bc they probably shouldn't have even started the season instead of trying to play 6 games in 6 weeks or whatever it was

 

Huh. Weird.

 

how’s the sec doing

 

Like Trump, below 50%

 

I mean I feel like flying to Cali today is going to end our season so that's fun.

 

Ended ours in more ways than one ha. Honestly, ASU had like zero issues with Covid(certainly never anything approaching an outbreak despite Tempe being on fire in August) and one trip to LA and it's all burning down

 

SPOOOOOOORTS though

 

I never understood why they thought that was a game changer

 

They didn't... just self-serving spin. Like, hey here's this thing that makes our decision look rational. It's definitely a positive thing but 'game-changer' was obvious hyperbole.
