AAC Tournament Cancelled

[CL82]

I feel so bad for CV (and Gilbert.) This was the last shot for post season play.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Not the time to be outraged. Right call.

Guys, this is far larger than sports. Sure, every fan feels bad for the seniors. But let’s keep perspective here.

oh stop with the lecturing. Everyone understands it’s bigger than basketball. You can still feel bad for these kids who gave it their all.

I figured this was coming. No sports for a while.

Conference championships canceled across board

The Power 5 leagues were among 15 conferences to cancel their tournaments amid the coronavirus pandemic, while the ACC and Pac-12 announced that all athletic-related activities had been suspended.

Life ain't far.

Had to cancel, based on the issue of public gatherings.

 

[the Q]

Conference winners would get the bids.

does that mean tulsa gets a bid?

 

[uconngb]

Can the NCAA be far behind?

NO way NCAA is going to go on

My son's college baseball season was also cut short. He's freshman, but it is still devastating. I feel terrible for all, but especially the upper classmen. I truly believe this team had a chance to make a run, now they're let with "what if..."

I'm still drinking at 3pm. I'll watch all of @tcf15 's stuff.

 

[Phoenixhusky]

Matter of time before NCAA cancels the tourney.

Lol, maybe go on the COVID-19 board and post that? On a sports board, I think it's fine to discuss the impact of the pandemic on sports, but I appreciate your being a moral compass for us all.

By end of day is my guess.

If it’s not safe to play basketball this week than why would it be safe to play the NCAA next week?

 

[Ts5034]

Any chance of postponement??

Almost impossible with college sports because its not like this is all going to be over in a week or two where things can just get pushed back. I feel terrible for all of our guys, and for all the other teams as well, especially Rutgers and our old friend Steve Pikiell.

This is what Rutgers being successful does to the universe

Let's be real. The panic train is rolling. No way the NCAA is getting played.

agreed.

 

[CL82]

So stupid.

I always her that phrase in Rosie Perez's voice.



(Feel free not watch the whole thing.)

 

[JB75]

I feel sick. This is so depressing. Wtf? Bout to go into bunker mode. I’m numb. Was so looking forward to the games. Surprised they won’t try to postpone things till mid late April. I mean to come right out and flat out cancel seems kinda final and extreme, why not just suspend ? Still don’t get why they just don’t suspend for now- why cancel ? U never know what might happen in 2-3 weeks

Those bastards, they've killed us all.

 

[UconnU]

If it’s not safe to play basketball this week than why would it be safe to play the NCAA next week?

Oh I’m not saying they will be playing I’m just saying that regular season conference winners would obviously get the auto bid IF they do.

 

[Shine33]

Hopefully the NCAA has a heart and grants all seniors a 5th year of eligibility.

Doubt it

 

[CardiacAndre7]

So stupid.

Actually it’s the opposite, it’s smart.

 

[polycom]

Well this is obvious...who that they were going to play? That is insane. Like I said there is no more CBB this year.

The ACC is about to play as we speak
