Rick Barnes Positive for COVID-19: Games this week are in doubt

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Man we might not ever get to see Keon and Jaden play in a UT jersey... that’s legit one of the most depressing things.

Thats sucks man

 

[Vols All Day]

The shutdown is extended until Dec 5.
Vols Basketball Shutdown Extended - University of Tennessee Athletics

That would be the biggest nut kick ever

 

[cwbytruckers]

Might as well cancel the season. Forget about any quality non conference games.

Nothing short of devastating.

Have to go to a conference only schedule starting in January. You can do it in a mini-bubble. That may be the only way we get a season in.

Figure out a true round robin home and home would be cool.

Yup. The SEC can do 26 game season home and away for everyone starting in January. Move the NCAAT to April. No conference tourneys this year.

I was thinking along the lines of 13 weekends of back to backs. Play the same team on Friday and Saturday. Play four spaced out non conference games. Cancel the conference tournament and use that weekend or venue as a makeup opportunity, if applicable.

We’re fine. Get it out of the way early, would rather get it now than towards the end of the season.

That’s what we said over the summer when a couple of players got it

And it’s been a few months since then.

Now essentially the whole team and staff have had it, should be good to go lol

 

[Chris4Vols22]

For real...I'll take any silver lining at this point.

 

[JelloPuddinPup]

Yeah but it's not just about our team. If other teams haven't had it they could get it at any time. We need the entire SEC to be immune at this point.

 

[Mccage]

2020 strikes again. I swear Vol fans just can't have anything nice, ever.

We still make good Whiskey unless JD's decide to make JG the Master Distiller.

 

[zjcvols]

Rick I hope you are doing well good sir. Get better and take care of yourself. And if you have time lead us to our first final four

Multiple can mean 2

Has anyone heard anything on Barnes's condition? He was on my mind this morning, and I'm praying he has a mild/uneventful course.

Apparently mild symptoms so far.
