Andy Katz: UConn-Richmond Monday

[bendm]

so where's the BE bubble going to be?

 

[UconnU]

What’re the problems with quarantining the positive, re-testing everyone else, and if all is well, playing? That seems to be the strategy elsewhere.

I'll never forget one "Big Monday" in the early 90's, for some reason, our game at the HCC vs Georgetown was the 9PM game rather than the standard 7PM. The crowd was extra boisterous for that one. It seems all there was to do for that extra time downtown was drink. LOL .... Good times.

I have the exact opposite memory of a big Monday game. 1989, stuck in Salt Lake City before they had real bars, trying to find some place with it on the tube. Ended up drinking 3.2 beer and getting almost no buzz with a bar tender and 3 old dudes as company.

Let’s wear the gray unis on Monday if we have a game

If there is I hear Mohegan is option 1. More likely would be a pod situation where half league would go to Mohegan and half would go to Omaha

 

[gsmooth]

We should be scheduling any game we can get, because we will actually play about 50% of the games we schedule.

Sadly I think this is true. Unlike any other year, the schedule this year is almost always dynamic and not static.

This is so nuts. Having not paid attention all day, I turned on Gonzaga vs. Baylor only to see UVA vs. Texas Tech.

Why does everyone speculate on everything and pretend they know what Hurley is thinking and doing?

There is an unusually large number of fans on this board who can read minds.

gross

 

[RayIsTheGOAT]

so where's the BE bubble going to be?

Agreed. Get going on this bubble ASAP.

Stick all 20 teams somewhere. Set up remote learning.
Quarantine. Test. Quarantine. Test. Quarantine. For a couple weeks.

Then let's get this show on the road. 20 games for each BE team in 2 months.

Not worth continuing the way it is set up right now.

Didn’t the big East already come out and say a bubble wasn’t financially feasible??? Or something similar?

Sounds like a win to me!

Winning gets redefined by the hour.

Just watching this.

That Moretti play woth a minute left.

That’s why you don’t “let them play through”

Call the obvious foul.

I think the word for scheduling is "fluid."

"Making memories" nonetheless.

Chief thinks you need enough of teams and flexibility at one location so you can swap out/in teams at short notice.

 

[huskiesNhoos]

Playing gets redefined by the hour.

FTFY

What’re the problems with quarantining the positive, re-testing everyone else, and if all is well, playing? That seems to be the strategy elsewhere.

as I understand it, the working theory is that some who came into contact with the infected party can be carrying, and spreading, the virus without coming down with it themselves.

 

[Chief00]

The other issue is incubation period (3-5 days usually) between exposure and testing positive. There are various windows and the goal should be risk reduction not an attempt at risk elimination. To do that the necessary actions are even more draconian.

 

[Dooooooomed]

That was a quick Plan B for the Spiders...
