Message: [QUOTE="UConnJim, post: 3623661, member: 1559"] I disagree. I think people are underestimating the impact of the Ivy League cancelling Fall sports and how that influences many college presidents. If anything went wrong with playing football due to COVID, people will point at the school's president and ask how could they have played football when the Ivy League was proactive and cancelled fall sports. Here is the choice for a college president and the trustees. Take a financial hit by not playing football or risk having COVID causing a serious problem. If they play football and no COVID problems occur, they will still be skewered for putting college athletes at risk for the financial gain of the college. If COVID ends up being a serious problem, the president will probably lose their job unless they are at an SEC school. They really are in a no win situation. [/QUOTE]
