[QUOTE="Techster, post: 726290, member: 360"] The good news: Fall camp is usually two months from now. There are workouts that occur during July for development and to help SAs get acclimated for camp. There is still time to turn all of this around. The bad news: Every state is operating from their own rules. Some states are requiring their residents to wear masks in public and around people, other states don't care. You may have some states that have low infection counts, while another state has high infection counts. As we're seeing in the Northeast, some states are discussing not letting residents from Southern states in. What if New York has that rule in effect during the season? Does it mean an ACC school from the South will need to cancel a game against Syracuse because a team like GT or Clemson is from a state on the no entry list? The reality is, if we can't get this under control, despite all of our best intentions and hope that things get better, I see a VERY narrow path to having sports this fall. I think we'll start getting pushback from parents, and then the media will start running away with this. As much as the NCAA and colleges need to have games for financial reasons, the last thing they want is a PR nightmare. [/QUOTE]
