What would a 21' spring football season look like?

Spring season talk is just bluster. Won’t happen

Spring football is a myth. What is going to happen between now and Spring to make the Covid19 hysteria dissapate enough to have a season? Just play football. If fans wanna come, then let them come. If they wanna wear masks, gloves or snorkels then let them wear them. Or not. 6 months in and it's time to stop shutting down our nation for a bad cold that's gone and going around. That or play all the games in Sweden or South Dakota where leadership is not beholden to forces of corruption and manipulation.

There is a whole pre-draft process in which underclassmen have to declare. Then you have combine, pro days, official meetings/interviews, etc.

If there were a spring season you would probably want to get the NFL draft to be pushed back from mid to end of June.

Then you would probably have to squeeze the season into 10 game schedule from March to Mid May.

It could work, but you would need full cooperation from all parties.

The talk of a spring season is just to curb the aggression away from the conference commissioners who are refusing to play. They know it is impossible. The liability from injuries occurring from playing 2 seasons in one year would be astronomical. Your top athletes won't risk their future careers over it. Won't happen. Period.

To me, the big question is what do you do in the fall of 2021? Play again? It doesn't make sense to even pretend to get the sports seasons messed up, but I realize they have to give people hope. The universities were making a lot of money. Or at least not losing all the money they're going to lose. to me, that is what it was really about. Pretending that you didn't already lose all that $$$$$.

Satan is right. It would be JV season.

I dont care if we have football or not. This **** just got real. Both my parents tested positive this morning and I can't be there for them. This may kill one or both of them. They are both elderly and in a weakened state. My dad just had pneumonia age 74. My mom is already having breathing issues age 67. Prayers needed Vol Nation.

I want football, as much as an of you. I also am tired of life being put on hold. I still do not believe the danger is as bad as the media plays it up to be. But, with all that said, I believe that one of the SEC, Big 12 or ACC will fold, and it will cause a domino effect, and the other two conferences will fold, as well. I hope I am wrong. But I think spring football is better than no football.

I agree 100%

The NFL has their draft set for April 29. If there is a spring season, there is the potential of the season running into mid draft. Could see a situation ie Trevor Lawrence where as soon as he's picked, he's done. Makes the season no more than an exhibition.

yeah -- the NBA draft is already way late, although I could care less about it
