2020 Football Schedule and Future Opponents

I’m not even sure where to begin on how terrible your view is on this and those kids who work their butts off for this. I don’t think they would appreciate being looked at as an asset on a p&l statement.

Whatever...I was referring to his original statement of why should the g5 even play a season. They put in the work for 4-5 years and deserve to be able to play their senior year, graduate and move on. They shouldn’t be penalized because the athletic department might not make the usual revenue, they don’t get extra when the department makes millions

Everyone in this country is facing unique and uncomfortable situations with regard to the effects of the pandemic, so lets not act like im just throwing them under a bus. I said they can get their senior season next year. i also listed 3 reason why a senior might want to get a shot at a full and normal season the following year. There are a few athletes that are opting out of playing this season due to concerns about teams being able to keep them safe from covid while playing. so its not as if my question was completely anti-player.

what are the odds that head coaches “scrub” the players contact tracing lists

i.e. night before big game a fourth string bench warmer tests positive, but had star qb on his tracing list. will coach sit the qb and submit the honest lisr?

You asked a question of why g5 should even consider playing, I gave you an answer. Your entire post was about money, nothing about the players so forgive me if you misrepresented your stance. Can they be seniors next year, has that been ruled on? Will the scholarship limit be raised and will the university pay extra scholarships? Can they afford to pay it after a cancelled season. It’s much easier said than done. The players want to play

They all currently have the option to choose not to play but with other conferences playing, canceling our season won’t be so cut and dry in regards to extra eligibility. The G5 is accustomed to playing with limited attendance, 50% capacity won’t effect that with the exception of a handful of schools. 25% capacity wouldn’t be an issue for majority of the g5. The guys who are on schedule to graduate and deserve their senior year should be considered. At 50% capacity Cajun field can hold 21,500 which wouldn’t be an issue except fir mcneese. People are making decisions in all sorts of situations without looking at the consequence of the people actually being affected by it. If seniors do get an extra year you are really taking a year away from the underclassmen who won’t be awarded and extra year. It’s all easier said than done.
