I think this year will be the year that tells us whether Pastner can recruit locally. We will have at least 4 possibly 5 scholarships to give out and we probably lose at least 3 starters. With the current crisis I would expect there to be more desire for kids to stay closer to home (and for...

FWIW, this is from the FAQ for the COVID19 model from the University of Washington. It mentions that after the first wave ends they estimate 97% of the American public will still be susceptible. Why do your estimates only go until July? Does that mean the outbreak will be over then? Our model...

I definitely respect your opinion 05. It is not an unreasonable one. I think it is a legitimate take. My opinion is based largely on 2 factors. One, epidimiologists expect there to be multiple waves and have stated they expect us to be able to relax mitigation measures at times, but then have to...

Absolutely, I agree with you, it will not go on to infinity (would actually not be a good virus if it did, a good virus doesn't want kill all the people as it needs to keep replicating). But I would like to limit its effects. There is a big difference between 50-60K dying, and 400-500K. FWIW...

There will be no summer football practices. no summer camps for any sport - if they are making students stay remote they aren't going to allow some subset to be on campus where there are physically touching each other constantly. My expectation is that summer recruiting will be shut down as...

I am not at the point of saying no football, but I am at the point that there will not be a full season. Due to the revenue involved schools will try really hard to get as much of the season in as they can, but my gut is it won't be a full season. Teams are going to be starting behind and late...

First off welcome to GT Kyle. Second my condolences to your family. (his father died in February). As DTM mentioned, this is your starting PG in 2021. and depending upon how the one free transfer rule ends up - he will have either 3 yrs starting this fall or 3 yrs starting fall of 2021.

FWIW, we crossed 1,000 deaths in a single day today in the US (the high points for seasonal flu are around 500 deaths in a day). The World crossed 1,000,000 confirmed cases (one month ago there was less than 90,000 confirmed cases). This growth is the definition of an exponential function. Right...

University System of Georgia announced that Summer School will be conducted remotely. They hope to have students on campus in the fall if health conditions permit it. https://www.ajc.com/blog/get-schooled/breaking-summer-courses-and-maymester-will-online-georgia-campuses/tq130DHLvgcMCEx3JwW3TP/

The Leitao extension has been rumored ever since COVID19 broke out. Going from getting fired to being extended, not bad. I'll be honest, it may be multiple years before there is any serious coaching carousel again. I don't think 2021 is likely to have much of a turover because AA's aren't going...

To me this option has already died today. How in the world are you going to tell a bunch of 18-22 yr olds they have to be in close proximity to each other for months when everyone else is not even on campus due to safety concerns. The outcry among the general public would be incredible and any...

I agree with you. Seems like the opposite should be the case.

This to me is totally expected and whyI think it is unlikely there will be a full football season. Student Athletes in most sports - but especially in college football and basketball are on campus during the summer taking classes, having workouts and working with each other outside of official...

To pick up on the Iowa St story. That is their projected shortfall from the loss of Big 12 Tournament and NCAA Tournament revenue. it does not include shortfalls if any college sporting events are impact over the next 12 months.

This is the first one i've seen, i bet it won't be the last. Iowa St is implementing a 1 yr pay and bonus cut for coaches as 2 of 6 current measures they are instituting to try to deal with a current projected $5M shortfall due to COVID19...

This will likely be the firs but not the last school to do this. Iowa St is cutting pay and bonuses to coaches as 2 of 6 current measures to try to deal with an expected $5M shortfall dueto COVID19...

And the death rates in the US right now basically split the different between Spain and Italy. That's what we are fighting to avoid.
