ATHLETICS: For indoor events, we are asking for no events with spectators other than the athletes, parents, and others essential to the game.
Right now, outdoor events can continue. #COVID19
So the first four games in Dayton look like there will be no spectators.
It ain’t THAT simple. I just got back to the office from having the flu and I hear the same hacking and sneezing, etc. around the office. People are just clueless these days, which is why these extreme measures may be necessary. No reason to outright cancel the tourney though, no fans at a minimum. Too much tv money to be made and good games to watch.We’ve officially devolved into hysterical people with no backbone who have cast aside any logic in favor of drama. Wash your hands, don’t shake hands, and carry on.

This is literally a glorified flu. People need to chill out. The S strand here in America is incredibly weakMaybe just ban old people from leaving their homes and everyone else just go about their business.
It’s not that tho.... look what’s happened in China, Italy, other countries around the globe, especially the drain on their health care system. The rates of infection are high Globally and it’s spreading quickly. Having large amounts of people together is the easiest way to spread that. I don’t want to end up like Italy or China and the shutdowns they are facing; it’s pretty serious just because we don’t really know the effects yet. I’d suggest listening to the Joe Rogan podcast on it from today or the Sam Harris one. It’s easy to call it overblown or taking way too much of a precaution, but it’s really one of the few things that can be done to prevent such a widespread so quickly. Seemed overblown to me at first, but the two podcasts really reshaped my thinking on it. Learned a lot from the podcast today, I’d suggest going to listen to it.This is literally a glorified flu.

Boehiem would like the tourney and all post season play cancelled.

I wouldn't.put anything at 0% now. The way things are going it at least seems fairly likely games will be played with no crowds.0 chance they cancel it unless the colleges themselves pull out.
TV contract is just too much money.
