They just got done playing a 10 game season, with fans, with bowl games etc. I see no reason they can't have spring practice now I think you'll see some schools use this as a reason to get rid of spring games for good.Depends on the Covid numbers, data, etc. I’m sure it’ll be a fly by the seat of your pants/last minute thing just like all of last season was. No way they make a decision now. WAY too early.
I’m sure what he was implying was that at Dollar Tree the items are crap and they are very inexpensive. Most know when they shop there you get what you pay for. This scenario is different. We are paying in the upper tier but the product has still fallen apart and isn’t well made. So more like a Sharper Image or Brookstone. One of those mall shops that are crazy expensive but still, everything you buy is made of plastic and won’t last.Just because they are the highest paid does not mean they are good and worth it. Dont say you never spent a lot of money on something and get it home and a month or 2 later you found out it was not worth the money you gave for it.
Iver read a few articles about the costs of these things. This one is from October 2020. I bet Auburn had spent close to$1 million by the end of the season. I also assume that UT wasn't far behind.Rapid tests cost from $1 to $5 each. Hard time believing cost is the driving factor

You are being redirected...
Possibly. Or it could be more related to the administration of the tests and results driven circumstances. Dedicated personnel, testing locations, quarantine/isolation areas and costs, etc.I would guess that's because of a couple reasons
- using the more expensive type of tests
- these cheap tests are now being classified as a medical device and insurance can jack the price. The US govt paid $5 ea for their large order and there are now cheaper options
ETSU didn't play any games last season but they have already started practice this year according to the local news, (Johnson City). Just how the NCAA plays into this, I have no idea at this time. Are there different rules for Div.1 and FCS schools? One thing for certain, UT needs all the practice it can get. D.Beckwith appears to be a beast at running back and it would be good to get a better than average OLine coach in here.They just got done playing a 10 game season, with fans, with bowl games etc. I see no reason they can't have spring practice now I think you'll see some schools use this as a reason to get rid of spring games for good.
