If Saban tests negative today for the 3rd time today, he can coach tonight according to SEC protocol. But is it true that if he coached at Tenn, he would have to mandatory quarantine for 14 days regardless of the negative tests because Knox County Health Dept had much stricter guidelines that coaches and players in other SEC cities don’t have to adhere to?? If true this is a distinct disadvantage to Tenn.
is this the case?

If Saban tests negative today it confirms that his first test was a false positive. Teams are using rapid tests every day. They give a result in 15 min but also have a highish rate of false positives. If someone tests positive they are required to take multiple PCR tests, these take 24 hours for a result and don’t give false positives. Their problem is they give a high rate of false negatives when the infection is new. This is why they need 3 days of negative PCR tests to confirm the first test was a false positive.

Thanks, but that’s not my question. My question is does the Knox County Health Dept have Tenn at a disadvantage with their strict policy. CPJ made a comment that he had 50 players out and 44 of them all tested negative the entire 2 weeks.

The 14 day quarantine rule is for those discovered to have been exposed through contact tracing. A positive test is typically 10 days of quarantine.

You have no idea what you are talking about. Your dislike for Saban has caused you to lose your mind....

We have a lot of problems as a football team right now. Let's not search for more hypothetical ones.

Try again and read my post.
Is Tennessee having to go by a different set of rules than the rest of the league because of the Knox County Health Department?
If CJP tested positive, he would be quarantined up to 14 days irregardless of if he tested negative 10 more times, according to the KCHD guidelines.
I’m not complaining about Saban,
I’m just curious why Tenn has a different set of guidelines than the rest of the SEC.

It’s not hypothetical unfortunately.
It’s why Tenn basically had no preseason practice and ZERO scrimmages while other teams got players back within a week if they tested negative 3 consecutive days

The idea that PCR tests don't yield false positive is a joke. Even the inventor of the test says it shouldn't be used to test for covid. Not to mention the multiplier being used blatantly violates the CDCs own guidelines for the use of it.

We get the $100,000 fine. Meanwhile Saban, half the Florida and Vandy rosters actually have Covid. Makes complete sense.

To be fair, we likely deserved to be fined just based on how goofy Pruitt looked in his gaiter

I thought you were going to say the first thing he’d do is open up the qb competition until he finds a playmaker there because he’s understands how significant it is to the team’s success to have a good player at the position.

14 days is for contact tracing for people who have come in contact with someone who was positive. 10 days is for someone who tested positive. Saban didn’t come in contact with a known positive case so I believe his positive would be thrown out due to being a false positive. The UT players who were testing negative were forced to quarantine due to prolonged contact with a positive person, not them testing positive themselves.

The rules are weird and complex and they suck but end of the day Knoxville is more concerned about preventing an outbreak that forces the university to go fully remote than they are about a mediocre football team getting a couple more scrimmages in.

He would have a head case QB and we would stink.
