Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 3727074, member: 5798"] Of course we all hope and pray for the health and safety of all of our players, coaches and staff. Unfortunately there is a country wide rise in positive COVID 19 virus infections and hospitalizations. Some cities are having critical shortages of hospital beds again as well as staff fatigue/shortages. It’s being reported that refusal to wear masks and observe social distancing recommendations are directly to blame. The COVID virus is on the rise, and has just about consumed the state of Wisconsin. By no means are we out of the woods. If the season does begin, because you also must depend on the ability of each team on your schedule to strictly adhere to CDC and conference guidelines, you can’t look beyond the next game. Of course your team must also maintain strict protocol adherence as well. One positive test on either team can cause a game to be postponed or canceled. It’s been proven that bubbles to work. How feasible they would be for college basketball remains to be seen. Look at all of the college football games that have been canceled or postponed because of players testing positive. Entire NFL facilities being shut down. Fans not being allowed to attend games in outdoor stadiums. Nothing can be taken for granted at this time. Once the season begins, the approach may be to take things one day at a time. Plan for tomorrow, but don’t take it for granted. [/QUOTE]
