Multiple tests...

I’m curious if they’re actually sick or asymptomatic. Frustrates the hell out of me.

Having conference tournaments a week before the NCAA started was always a bad idea. And the reason they happened is because the conferences and the schools that make them up wanted those tournaments for the money. (I've heard alot of coaches would have been happy not to have them).

It's the same reason the NCAA was determined to have the NCAA Tourney, without the tournament this year there would be a significant number of schools whose athletics programs would not survive. College Football really only helps about 100 schools' athletic programs. For everyone else basketball is their meal ticket.

With many teams going to IND within a couple of days from the end of their tournaments there was almost a 100% chance that there would be players/coaches/staff that tested clean for the 7 straight days before arriving in IND but who had been infected in the last 2-5 days before they arrived but weren't testing positive yet.

This was hardly the NBA bubble where they had to be clean before they came into the bubble and then they had to quarantine in the bubble for weeks.

Hopefully the no contests will be few and far between, i don't expect alot of them, just a handful maybe.
Back to discussing the games themselves. Go UVA tonight, need ACC to represent for both the look and the money.

So far B12 and P12 are the 2 standout conferences. P12 is 5-0 with one game left and B12 is 5-0 with 2 games left.
SEC has been good to so far 4-1 with one game left.

What’s the deal with UVA as far as personnel, is everyone playing and eligible right now or are they missing players? Just turned it on.

Probably asymptomatic to mildly symptomatic is my guess.

I believe everyone for UVA is a go except for Justin McCoy, who supposedly is not there and was almost certainly the player who tested positive last week.

Well, that's worse than our situation

 

[AUFC]

I secretly love UVa. They've been a distant second team for years now. Bennett recruits such likeable athletes and Bennett himself is great (bonus points that he loves GT and Pastner).

Kihei just kills their offense though

Hope UVA wins. Ohio with the lead.

 

[dtm1997]

More opportunity for dook to eliminate more tourney teams.

 

[AUFC]

Kihei is absolutely not a stud PG but I would have loved him as a Jacket. Great defender, great leader, great passer, plays ridiculously hard. Similar player to Jose.

 

[Milwaukee]

Come on UVA. What a performance by Ohio.

 

[lauraee]

I hate when coaches try to milk the clock on offense late in games,too often team comes away with a crappy shot or to & the other team scores & catches up.

Except real wages have been falling for decades while worker productivity has gone up. But, oh wait, we have to pay the CEOs record salaries because the stock market says we have to.

If peiple don’t think they’re paid fairly, they can change jobs.

ACC 2-5

 

[Milwaukee]

Ohio dumps UVA, this is such a CRAZY year due to Covid. But everyone is dealing with it. I’m still pissed we lost our best player but every team is dealing with this bs. Congrats Ohio!
