One week after announcing the Big Ten season schedule, they cancel the season.
Who didn't see this coming?

What’s that great sucking sound you hear from the sports networks? Money going down the drain. Question...do the players keep their free ride and tutoring etc?

This is going to cost them so much money. I feel bad for the players, but I have no sympathy for the liberal infested administration.
Spring football will be an oddity, a mild curiousity, and the money they get will be a small fraction. Football may survive, but all the sports football supports are in real danger.

However, the combination of outspoken coaches and the #WeWantToPlay X #WeAreUnited movement that developed suddenly late Sunday seemed to give pause to the five major conferences.
Not to mention PDJT pinning it to the top of his Twitter feed. These are state universities and they came under tremendous pressure from Democrat Lockdown Governors.

Just cancel all sports and be done with it.
Hell, that’s what they intend to do anyway.

Good. Anything that screws with university revenues is a good thing for the US.

Golden Calf judgement. Those paying for tickets and transport could be using that money for their kids to learn a building, assembling, design skill, or other, together.

Since big-money college football is just taxpayer-sponsored minor-league NFL football anyway, how will the NFL adjust its draft plans?
BY the by, what is the line on whether or not there will be college or NFL football in 2021, let alone 2020?

This is not about player safety. The players are much more likely to have CTE or other football related health issues than any lasting covid issue. This is about liability.
Serious question, has there ever been a successful lawsuit where someone claims to have gotten a virus and sought compensation from those they think they got it from? Obviously outside of somebody maliciously performing an action in an attempt to infect another. If all the teams have been and continue to take precautions and test, I do not see the issue with them playing.

Total BS. No way they play two seasons in a calendar year. I hope the other leagues steal all their recruits. This is a 100% political decision.
