    They already have been. From July 1st: Wear a mask or risk no college football this year. That’s the message Gov. Brian Kemp, a die-hard Georgia fan, delivered Wednesday as he launched a statewide “Wear A Mask” tour. “If people, especially our young people, don’t start wearing a mask when...

    I am with you, but in the scenario where a state like South Carolina (or any other state with an ACC team, but especially the one with the National Title contender) doesnt let their teams play - no way the ACC season would be viewed as legitimate if Clemson can't play. Now maybe South Carolina...

    I look at this way - regardless of how you feel about the virus (you think it's going to kill us all, it's completely overblown, or somewhere in between) you have to consider how others are going to act. If some states/schools/conferences decide (rightfully or wrongfully) that they don't like...

    I just posted an article from a reputable news source that states there isn't a link so far and the theories for why that may be (the protests were outside and the majority of the participants wearing masks). Additionally there were not spikes in places with large protests and were spikes where...

    Can you cite this? Everything I have seen has said the opposite, that they have been unable to link the protests to spikes. Maybe I just didnt see those articles, but I have seen several that said the opposite, particularly where you see spikes where there weren't protests and haven't seen...

    Those numbers are across all sports, not just football. I can't find where I read it, so I can't say for certain, but I thought I had read the average school brings in 60% of their revenue from ticket sales. Now I am probably remembering that wrong and I am sure that varies by school wildly...

    The season is going to be full of asterisks already. There will be games cancelled or at best played with teams that are missing key players b/c they have to quarantine. I personally, rather watch a season where some high profile players sit out the whole thing than having teams vary wildly...

    Agreed that it will be difficult to stop the kids from getting the virus if they aren't playing, but there is a difference between educating them and the players not following it while games aren't being played vs knowingly letting infected players play/be around others related with football...

    This will definitely be interesting. In regards to the NFL pushing back the draft, I think it would be in their best interests too in order to see what players come out of nowhere/which ones fall down the pecking order. The decision by the NFL will is likely to influence whether kids like...

    Maybe, but since so many schools get over half of their football revenue from ticket sales, it might be worth it to them to roll the dice on their being a vaccine/things are under better control by the spring. As you pointed out, there maybe a second wave, but (hopefully) we would be in the...
