[QUOTE="BuzzDraft, post: 740766, member: 2812"] Damn,Tennessee is lucky their games were delayed, seeing as 44 of their players went into quarantine today. It would be tough to play any team at any level if they have entire position groups wiped out for the next two weeks. Some teams are going to lose or forfeit because they have too many players in quarantine on game day. We will see more of this over the next several weeks. That seems relatively harmless, but it has nothing to do with the immediate danger to the players (although the clinical reports of new serious heart issues in healthy young people have been recorded and the long term health implications are yet to be known right now), it's the secondary and tertiary contacts that are suffering. That "small" wedding in Maine has resulted in outbreaks in other distant and unrelated locations with hundreds of cases, hospitalizations, and three deaths SO FAR of people who were not remotely involved at all in the wedding... but their infections have been traced to the wedding. You don't think there are going to be huge liability lawsuits over this? This is why many college presidents made the decisions they did... their number one job is to protect their institutions from liability for things they have control over. Off campus parties they are not responsible nor liable for, but allowing sweaty players wrestling on the football field with each other and with players from outside their bubble, they are. [/QUOTE]
