Ed Orgeron is positive we will play football. https://sports.yahoo.com/lsu-coach-ed-orgeron-to-vp-mike-pence-we-need-football-202156290.html Also, in that article it mentions that the SEC has joined the ACC in postponing all fall sports to after Sept 1. (like the ACC that does not affect any FB...

As a father of one millenial I approve of this post (and also a Gen-z) i don't think my daughter could go 24 hours without using her phone. Of course, even when she is using the phone it isn't to call people. My favorite is how so many became Pavlovian dogs. Anytime my kids phone gives a...

FYI, Andy Stanley, who has a large ministry in Atlanta - over 30,000 members, says there will be no in-person services at any of his churches through the rest of 2020. https://www.ajc.com/news/local/andy-stanley-cannot-guarantee-your-safety/dJu0RoZcEd1ZuSpDmTIbKM/ One of his churches is less...

SEC making the last ditch effort

Junior College has postponed all basketball games until January. New article by Gary Parrish says he is hearing it is unlikely college basketball will start on time and the best case scenario is a conference-only season starting in January...

To their credit they have tested more than anyone else. Even now they are testing more than most states in the country (Alaska, DC and LA test more per capita). They are testing almost 30% more people per capita on a daily basis than FL, more than 75% more per capita than GA is, so they have...

This sounds good to me as long as they have firm, measurable metrics to use to evaluate. It can't be qualitative (it feels like things are ok), it has to be quantitative - meet specific numbers.

New study from Switzerland. Some good news and bad news in terms of seroprevalence and what it means for schooling. Let's start with the good. The infection rate in 5-9 yr olds is very small. Doesn't look to be an issue at all in that age category - that's great news compared to something like...

new article from Pete Thamel. Defiinitely the pessimistic view, but the ones he is getting quotes from are P5 AD's and coaches. https://sports.yahoo.com/time-to-face-reality-no-one-is-playing-college-football-in-the-fall-170634809.html

ACC has indefinitely postponed its virtual media days https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/acc-indefinitely-postpones-its-virtual-media-days-that-were-set-for-july-21-23/ I know this hasn't been mentioned much in the PAC12 announcement last Friday but not only did the PAC12 go to a...

A couple of updates this morning. First, from a study currently headed to the peer review process that was posted to medrxiv on Saturday from England. It's another small group study that is showing most of the antibodies from getting COVID disappear rapidly, potentially as soon as 20-30 days...

My youngest will be a senior this year, he has been homeschooled since 3rd grade. He is also an Asperger's kid. Homeschooling is not easy, but it can be done. As I mentioned yesterday and i think bwelbo is saying similar things, there is going to have to be a variety of teaching methods...

I read the article and there are a number of mistatements or falsehoods in it. First, the increase in hospitalizations are flat out not caused by regular care. Both AZ and TX have stopped elective surgeries in the majority of their states due to all the COVID cases. Second, there is a number of...

I don't disagree with your point bwelbo. While they don't tell us how many tests they have done, I think the cases in Brazil and India are both way understated. Both likely have more deaths and more cases than the US even though they report lower.

COVID Tracking Project does a nice job with a weekly blog update. https://covidtracking.com/blog/record-new-cases-surging-hospitalizations-rising-deaths-this-week-in-covid For any that are interested they have a deep dive into FL data. The good, the bad, and what's missing...

Since i'm partially rsponsible for getting this thread off track i'll try to get it back on track. National Junior College Association is expected to announce tomorrow that they are moving Junior College football to the spring...

The CDC website is very easy to misinterpret since they don't do a great job explaining their pages in layman terms. The Pneumonia numbers include COVID19 counts. This chart shows P&I (Pneumonia & Influenza) number from 2018 through 2020. CDC has said there has been no spike in influenza numbers...

These are two really good articles on re-opening schools. Very nuanced. https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2020/07/09/reopening-schools-coronavirus-pandemic-expert-analysis-politics-2020-355466...

It's definitely not panic porn, just accurate numbers giving a sense of where we are today (not where we have to be tomorrow). It's also not run away we're going to die - just the opposite, i'd like to run towards it and deal with it head on. Unfortunately we have had too many leaders at the...
