NWAkron Posted March 11, 2020 Report Posted March 11, 2020 The first victim of an empty arena: #1 seed Central Michigan women and the women's coach of the year. Not boding well for tomorrow. These games have to feel like a scrimmage. Quote

I saw pictures of the game and it doesn't look much different than any Akron women's basketball game I went to as an undergrad. Quote

Let'sGoZips94 Posted March 12, 2020 Report Posted March 12, 2020 (edited) Gobert is gonna beat the flu, I mean COVID-19. Meanwhile, a basketball league in China (maybe the Chinese Basketball Association) is summoning the American players back over there as soon as this weekend. Those who fail to go back to China could be facing a lifetime ban. Glad to know the birthplace of the Coronavirus is so concerned. Edited March 12, 2020 by Let'sGoZips94 Quote

You do realize that the risk of death for people under 60 is near zero? Edited March 12, 2020 by akronzips71 Quote

It's a ripple effect. I hope they move to smaller venues and make it as much fun for the athletes as they can. I mean what a true test of basketball. The blue blood teams won't have all the built in advantages that they usually get. Imagine a MAC school getting to play an ACC team on an absolutely neutral court with no fans. Go Zips tomorrow!
