Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

Dunno but since the symptoms are about the same people are going to be getting hit with both tests. More money for the hospitals

I guess I mean the negative side effects rather than symptoms. Like if you’ve had covid and recovered in terms of feeling better, Will your lungs still be weaker causing you to get hit harder by the flu?

If we don't get to play, with having the best o-line in who knows how long...... that is the most Tennessee luck ever!!!!!

It’ll suck but I’ll genuinely be heart broken if we’re robbed of this basketball team

Mizzou fits as much as KY does, in fact, I'm all for only those south of mason dixon and east of MS river being in SEC and screw the cornhuskers !

Still think WVU would’ve been a better fit than Mizzou!!

I love that the big 10 players have to still train and do drills for seven months then no spring season. How much would that suck?

I don't think this is really about the virus. This is about players organizing and the threat of lawsuits. I think schools can deal with the virus; I don't think they have yet figured out a way to deal with the players. jmo.

Anyone who went to bed before midnight Eastern last night woke up to a big surprise: College football players from the five major conferences want to form a union.
Last week, players from the Pac-12 threatened to boycott the 2020 season unless the conference agreed to a series of demands from the athletes. Over the weekend, another group of players (including Clemson’s Trevor Lawrence and many Ohio State Buckeyes) began tweeting in concert about their desire to play. It seemed like the two groups were at odds with each other—one attempting to use its leverage against the college football power structure, the other hoping to work with the people in charge and get this season underway.

Then came the flea-flicker.

The Pac-12 players’ #WeAreUnited movement and the other players’ #WeWantToPlay effort joined forces. Lawrence and Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields (who could easily go first and second in the 2021 NFL draft) dropped identical statements at 12:01 a.m. ET calling for a set of NCAA-wide policies to address the pandemic’s effect on college football. The aims are straightforward: to create universal health and safety protocols and allow players to opt out without sacrificing eligibility. And then there’s the big one: “Use our voices to establish open communication & trust between players and officials; ultimately create a College Football Players Association.”

I've come to enjoy old Steve's quick wit one liners over the last few years. He definitely calls a spade a spade.

The New Commish for the Pangaea Conference.

I feel like LSU is going to have a field day with these transfers with only 73 scholarship players. Glad we don't play them.

Still need room in your 2020 class numbers, unless kids are willing to walk on...which at this point isn't out of the question. Wild year

He would be funny as hell.

And I’m no doctor, but I believe getting a flu shot could help with the Covid situation. You could still get it, as always, but it could help mitigate it.

Just to be clear..you are aware a flu shot is actually the flu being injected into you to fight against the flu I don’t trust doctors or anyone on this matter because there’s so much unknown still but if a doctor suggested That injecting a doctored Lab version of covid to fight against it hoping the body becomes immune to it...I’m telling him to take a hike up Mt.Everest

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Way to go big 10 and pac 12. Cancelling because of a virus that isn’t dangerous to anyone involved. Geniuses. Sec and ACC better play

The present situation screams 85 man exemptions. Aug 1 has come and past and rosters are still over.

So much cognitive dissonance among the CFB fans on reddit right now. On the one hand they are forced to be coronabros lest they get mass downvoted. But many are still tiptoeing around the discussion, trying to raise valid points about the wisdom of all this without people thinking they are evil mask-deniers.

 

[Devo182]

If they don’t play in the spring.... do they give seniors an extra year? If so, does that mean they will get more scholarships so they can add recruits?

That would seem the obvious and reasonable thing for the NCAA to allow











So, no.

Isn’t that the case if you were to get a bad cold or a bad flu anyways? You can get pneumonia from both I think it’s all semantics. Any sickness can make you susceptible to another sickness it can also possibly make you less likely to get another sickness. I honestly don’t think you will see that much of an increase in transmission you actually might see a drop in both flu and Covid if people are still wearing masks.
