ESPNU's Full Ride said a G5 program will be cancelling football tomorrow and an entire G5 football conference may cancel in a few days (likely the MAC).

MAC is apparently already under pretty tough revenue issues and then the conf only scheduling took away a lot of the pay day games. Of course there are other concerns like health and liability!! Just saying.

The G5 program- Either New Mex St or UMass I would think.

Huskies are smart dogs.

Someone explain this to me like I am 5: why would cancelling the season lead coaches to think rosters will be raided? What schools have room on their roster at this point for the 2020 season? Is the NCAA going to grant immediate eligibility to students that transfer? And if they are going to are they going to expedite such a decision that it is decided before the season starts?

Transfer now...sit out a year that you weren't going to play anyway...and play next year.

Testing is a must..and a lot of it....when I saw that Randy was tal;king 10 day turn around times...I knew that UConn was through.

I expect that G5 programs will make a financial decision....with lesser financial reward...the costs of playing with Covid are too high.

 

[huskymedic]

Puts that to rest...

predictable from the get go....

MVS desperately need the money from OU and can't break existing contract with Tarleton State
