my wife is a grade school teacher. They have 5 contingency plans for how school would be conducted this fall. I believe UT has three contingency plans ranging from face to face to fully online remote. It would be totally short sighted not to have alternatives. Even so, the poster’s only makes...

Thank you. 😎

Don’t care about the opinion of our opposition.

That’s a good point that no one wants to see happen at UT or any campus. My son is starting his last year of his master’s degree program at UT this fall.

Thanks for explaining. Again, colleges and universities cannot and should not be so dependent on what amounts to professional entertainment for their financial health. Look at the quandary they are in. I am speaking about all higher education, not just UT. That said, there has to be a...

What does your statement even mean? Are you saying all the colleges and universities will close down without football? Surely not. You must have meant that these schools will have to shut down some or most of their athletics programs without the influx of revenue from football. Any of these...

I think the lack of diversity is one of the results of mishandling the athletics department between the time of Dickey leaving and Fulmer arriving. We had bad presidents, bad chancellors, and bad ADs.

Of course if it were really true about the protests. I don’t believe the news articles.

The season should at best be delayed to Spring 2021. The SEC could start playing as early as mid February.

How do they enforce that policy at a football game if thousands disregard their masks once the game gets going? Will there be food and drinks sold and consumed with such a mask policy? It all may be necessary to attend but not much fun.

Friend, I really hope you are right. I also hope we can accelerate the development and production of the vaccine so that it gets to the public before the onset of the flu season this late fall. I would trade a fall season without football for an effective treatment any day. People tend to forget...

With the latest news this past week, college football, the NFL, and the NBA may be much more difficult to play this fall after all. How do you protect the players, refs, not to mention their families, other college students and their families if an outbreak starts amongst the teams?? MLB would...

That’s my opinion. With the internet and social media, whats the need for all the head coaches and their leader players to physically travel to one place and be asked questions by scores of media? All that can be done online.

A total waste of time and money.

Your assumptions may be too optimistic. There seems to be some talk about a shortened season due to trying to get students off campus by Thanksgiving and colder weather with perceived higher risks of a second wave of COVID19. A shorter season would make postponement of games improbable. More...

Your calculations would be too high as well. I think both of you are forgetting that the current 6 ft distance requirement would impact space in front and behind you as well as at your side. I’m thinking you’d have to leave 2 rows unoccupied for every one with fans. That limit alone takes you to...

Masks won’t work for fans or the players for games or practice. The ones that work are hot and smothering. The other masks I see people wear are useless. They wouldn’t prevent a gnat from getting through much less a virus.

That statement is a little on the hyperbole side in my opinion. I don’t read any news anymore because I think all people in the media are either liers or only report the part of their story that fits their agenda. Therefore I didn’t read your Washington Post link. That said, we should all know...

If I’m going to any game or any outdoor event this fall it will be without a mask. Besides looking stupid it’s freaking hot and smothering if you wear the ones that are at least somewhat effective. If they require a mask I’m staying home.

I’d take 9-4 this year and do a dance if 2 of the 9 W’s were Florida and Bama.
