  1. I may have found a way to avoid social distancing.
  2. I understand increased enrollment would increase university revenue; it's how increasing enrollment would reduce athletic department expenses that giving me trouble.
  3. It sure sounds like you think increasing enrollment would reduce athletic expenses which makes no sense. I guess this could be true if, for example, suppliers agreed to provide athletic equipment at a lower cost as enrollment increases occur, or if coaches agreed to lower salaries tied to enrollment increases.
  4. If she has loss of taste, coughing. fatigue, sore muscles, or diarrhea in addition to a high temperature she probably has COVID 19.
  5. Disney announced today that they have filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection citing the loss of your subscription to ESPN+ as the straw that broke the camel's back.
  6. Now I'm bummed. You got two tickets for the price of one!!!! I had to pay $1 for every ticket. I wonder if it's too late to sue somebody.
  7. I just hope he is kneeling before every match to demonstrate his support for BLM.
  8. He may not have had any stars out of high school and only one offer, but he is tiny. You can't teach tiny. https://www.hudl.com/profile/5403496/Karey-Lee
  9. The Mrs. and I were in the same (but dramatically less populated) stadium a few years before you to witness the Zips destroy the Bearcats. The Cincy fans sitting near us all attributed the result to the fact that Akron had a real coach and they didn't. This was the same coach that was a world beater as a high school coach when he was one of the few coaches who could recruit, but then couldn't win at ND, and my out-of-state friends raged on me when we hired a proven loser. It's interesting/depressing to see the trajectory of both teams since that day.
  10. Heard a rumor that Zeke may be coming back to Akron to pursue a masters degree so that he will be eligible to represent the Zips on our eSports team.
  11. according to https://www.maxpreps.com/athlete/dalen-burney/rJJW6mhDEeeT-Oz0u-e-FA/default.htm at one time he was a QB. But more recently is listed as a TE/DE https://www.hudl.com/profile/8114501/Dalen-Burney 247 has never heard of him.
  12. A few additional questions, and a suggestion, have occurred to me. Will there be divisions in esports just like in real sports? Are there going to be esport scholarship limits? Will the school be required to provide ejocks with insurance policies to cover esport injuries like carpal tunnel? And I'm probably missing out on an a life-changing opportunity by not doing this myself, but somebody in Akron should establish the eSport Hall of Fame so Akron can keep up with Cleveland and Canton and their Halls of Fame (The eHall of Fame).
  13. So has 1350 replaced the commercial that claims Brookhart is the Zips head football coach yet?
  14. I like this idea. Each member would get their own section to sit in. Now that's social distancing.
  15. 25 11 for defense, 11 for offense, one kicker, one punter, and one return specialist/holder combo.
  16. Try to remain calm. All the doctors at the NCAA are working full time to shut this down.
  17. LOL
  18. I see your point. Somebody should have thought about putting computers in dorm rooms. Then this wouldn't be a problem. Oh wait.
  19. The reason we are not there is because we are in a conference. If we were not in a conference, each season we could schedule 12 sacrifice football games and scads of sacrifice bball games. If it's good for BYU, it has to be good for us.
  20. I've always said that the farther south I go, the smarter I get. Alabama, Mississippi and Texas have 3 of the highest 5 COVID infection rates in the country. Come on Bubba, let's play us some football.
  21. The decision leaves three of the Power 5 conferences intent on playing -- for now.
  22. Is the Big 12 next?
  23. UCONN MAC Old Dominion BIG PAC 12
  24. See post of 46 minutes ago. I think I'll start a new thread .
  25. According to the Detroit Free Press BIG football cancelled for this season.
