JZIP Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 All I am saying is that this would be the perfect time for the college soccer world to adopt the two part season. Get things rolling in the spring, summer break, and then finish everything up in the fall. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZippyRulz Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 It is 6 months until February. I think there will be a new president and some type of vaccine by then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z.I.P. Posted September 29, 2020 Report Share Posted September 29, 2020 Can anyone who's following it closely tell us which conferences are playing men's soccer this fall -- and which are waiting for Spring? I am presuming BTW, that all those whose men are playing this season also have women playing now. Correct? Also, could this be a preview of the yet-to-be-formalized two-season format? Is the NCAA planning a championship tournament anytime? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with football. The clowns are running the circus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a-zip Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 (edited) I know this is a soccer thread........This is not going to come out the right way but (here goes).... I think the MAC had an opportunity to grab some headlines/airtime though COVID by playing soccer and football. Seriously, is social distancing an issue at a MAC football or soccer game?

Perhaps there near some of the schools I am not aware of. True, the sports networks are cleaning out the closet showing 5 year old women's sports. IMO that is the reason the MAC decided to play in November and December. It wasn't for the athletes or the fans... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Realistically, Akron would have a problem with social distancing at their soccer matches. But no fans being admitted to MAC mid-week football games is an aggravating eye-roller.

Z.I.P. Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 Big West Conference made the decision last weekend to suspend all fall sports, including men's and women's soccer until fall of 2021. Anyone seen status of MAC and other conferences? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
