The dates can jiggle...

>>Those starting on Week 1, Labor Day weekend, could begin required workouts July 13, enhanced training July 24 and camp Aug. 7. For those starting a week before, on Week 0, activities can move up by a week. The final version of the plan could see slight adjustments in those dates, says Lyons.<<

Has Uconn made an announcement when the team will be back for workouts ? It looks like may schools are already back we should at least have a date and a course of action to return.
 


>>That brings the total number of positive tests to at least eight as at least five players tested positive last week upon the players' return to campus for voluntary workouts.

According to an SEC release in May, Alabama and teams across the league have a plan, as immediate isolation, followed by contact tracing, of team members who are diagnosed is suggested. <<

It’ll be so ironic when football is cancelled because states like Texas and Florida can’t keep their crap together enough for their to be a season.
 
The coronavirus has hit some states much harder than others. For much of the pandemic, a large share of U.S. cases have been centered around New York City. As of early June, New York state, Connecticut and New Jersey accounted for about 30% of total cases in the nation and 42% of deaths, although new cases have been dropping in these three states. Across the country, other large, populous states such as California, Illinois and Texas have high totals as well.

My assumption is that the earlier peaks were in the NE....Florida, the 3rd largest state and the state with the most elderly population, has done relatively well so far...cases will climb before they plateau or fall. As of early June, Florida has had 4.0 deaths per 100,000....Connecticut, 39.9 per 100,000.

Even as governors look to lift restrictions, the country continues to see spikes in deaths from the coronavirus.

Florida, as I noted, was peaking after Connecticut...but the deaths per 100,000 will have to increase ten fold to equal Connecticut...they could...but I don't think that they will.

The problem with Florida is that it is a summer magnet for folks from all over to vacation...
 
What I do know is that of 150 FSU football players, coaches, and satff tested on campus...there was one positive...

Florida has also:
1) been cooking the books since the start of this. Quite the "pneumonia" outbreak this year, eh?
2) half the population density of CT

@Dream Jobbed 2.0 is spot on - football will be impacted by the states that want it back most

Like sending covid patients to nursing homes...

Everybody has to open up someday....and Florida, more populous than New York state, will have it's share of cases...

But, in context of the thread...FSU football is a week into conditioning with all players on board except one who is quarantined....doing well at this point. If the kids go out for the July 4th holiday, there is an expectation that there might be more quarantines when retested.
 
Florida has had a problem with some noncompliance...hard to police..

Governor DeSantis directed all individuals entering the state of Florida from the New York Tri-State Area (Connecticut, New Jersey, and New York) to isolate or quarantine for a period of 14 days from the time of entry into Florida or the duration of the individual’s presence in Florida, whichever is shorter. This includes persons entering Florida by roadways.
  • This order was extended in Section 3 of the June 5 Executive Order
    • Roadside checkpoints are set up on interstates to check for potential COVID-19 cases coming into Florida from areas with substantial community spread of the virus. The checkpoints do not apply to commercial drivers or health workers.

Sure is... Miami Herald is going to town today on Florida’s noncompliance w/ “reporting of data”...
 
Football will play in Florida, I think (depending on the conference decisions)...

I do believe that there is a regional bias. I could shrug it off if the basketball season goes by the wayside...but not so, football.

We do love our basketball and baseball...but football is the king. Not so at UConn...regional differences.

>> Referred to as a so-called Buckeye Pledge, it asks players to "pledge to take responsibility for my own health and help stop the spread of the COVID-19."

The document goes on to warn athletes that "although the university is following the coronavirus guidelines issued by the CDC and other experts to reduce the spread of infection, I can never be completely shielded from all risk of illness caused by COVID-19 or other infections."

Incoming freshmen who had not turned 18 needed to have a parent or legal guardian sign the waiver.<<

Unbelievable, or maybe all too believable.
