A Sea Of Red

I might be wrong, but it appears schools are too quick to postpone games. Some schools will be selective with who they play, while still hoping for a bowl game, even if they play a very limited schedule.

Showing a lot of growth. I’m proud of you!

So many moving parts to a game, especially for the road team. Sometimes last-minute decisions are unavoidable. It in this case, advance notice helps all. I do t think the decision to postpone was premature.

The pop in cases at LT due to Hurricane Laura ... just makes sense. 18-23yo players will probably be fine, with the rare exception of a player with a preexisting condition that heightens risk. But the greater concern is that the players are carriers to coaches and staff - older folks at much higher risk of serious complications.

Err on the side of caution, hope to reschedule.

Did you read the article? If 38 players tested positive, then how many additional players are under quarantine protocols? Yeah, but go ahead. Play anyway. Don't be too quick to cancel.

They could just make all of the players/coaches wear masks. That should make it safe........................... shouldn't it?

Just on their chin, maybe over the mouth, but never over the mouth and chin.
