[QUOTE="Techster, post: 734249, member: 360"] The path for Fall sports was set up back in March when the virus landed on the radar. ALL of us failed as a country, so we are reaping what we sowed. Fall sports are the sports with the most human to human contact (football, basketball, hockey), so it makes sense that if the virus wasn't under control by now, it was always going to be VERY hard to realistically get it up and running safely. Especially so in a college setting where SAs aren't in a bubble. The other thing is that social media is giving SAs the ability of monitoring everything without filtration of going through college administration and coaches who may or may not have their best interest in mind. We're starting to see that SAs are voicing their concerns as a group, making it even harder for administrators to say that "We're all on board with this" when obviously that's not true. I think the optimism of Fall sports we had in July is starting to hit reality of where we currently are as a country in fighting this virus. [/QUOTE]
