2020 offseason thread

I think enrollment may have been a factor too. Especially if the decision is being made by university presidents.

If there's no football, a lot of freshmen might stay at home and attend UW-Milwaukee for $7K rather than live on campus at UW-Madison for $25K.

I brought it up a few pages ago, that canceling the season could be an effort to stymie any unionization of the players. I don't think there's enough there. I think schools are probably getting closer to remote learning, and that's what's changing.

I don't think it's about the players (as much as I'd like that). I think it's because it's becoming quite clear that the worst is yet to come for this part of the country. It's just taking a while to accept that.

Watching the rolling 7-day average, I’m hoping we finally hit our first peak 10 days ago. I’m just hoping now that schools go remote, because that’s the next crisis. I haven’t been following, but that’s the next key.

Most schools in Kansas City have, at a minimum, delayed openings until the day after Labor Day.

Which will work, in a fictional universe where people make good decisions from right now, until then.

New conference schedule.

Curious as to who they pick for non-con game.

Has to be the Salukis.

[NewtonHawk11]

You'd think, but I think saw a report from national CFB guy (Don't remember who) who said that it likely won't be Salukis.

[NewtonHawk11]

Hearing it will likely be Coastal

[Deleted User 318]

So stupid if they are going to make a team fly. It should be SIU so the team can drive.

[PhDhawk]

nebraska wants to play anybody, they're in driving distance.

Matt Tait saying SIU still expected.

[Deleted User 318]

Not going to be SIU, but should have someone. No contract signed yet.

Non-football conny, right?

[NewtonHawk11]

Correct ChalkRocker. Catholic b-ball schools only it kind of seems.

[TDub]

[Cascadia]

[Deleted User 318]

Serious question, where does UConn football play then?

They are an independent in football. Just went Big East for remaining sports.

[Deleted User 318]

Weird, I completely missed that.

Regardless, Coastal Carolina it is
