Like seriously you don’t understand how having non athlete students not being on campus but having student athletes there is horrible optics?

If this is true it’ll only be a matter of time before we won’t have shit in college this fall.

It's been inevitable for a while now. Everyone is just trying to squeeze every last dime out before they call it.

Unfortunately I believe you are right. Sucks but I just don’t have full confidence a season will play out. Especially now.

pretty wild that UNC's semester started about a month before UNC-Charlotte's is scheduled to begin.

Wait Texas players are virtual classing only.. only 5% of the students will be on campus throughout the semester.. another 18% are on a hybrid schedule..rest are online only.

So this is bad because UNC is dumb?

Most of us are using common sense that if students aren’t there, some liberal PC bs group will argue the players shouldn’t be there ether to the president(s).

I mean their requirements of students were basically "try not to cough on anyone" so I'm not at all surprised.

Most other legitimate schools have real plans in place

She must wear her mask in shared areas, she can't have visitors in her dorm room and she must follow social distancing rules. But she pointed out, there is only so much she can do.

"I do have an in-person class, so I have to go to class. I'm going to do my best and practice safety and wear my mask and wash my hands often, but I feel like it's spreading pretty fast," Gurin said.

travis County population

Travis County reports 265 new coronavirus cases, total now 24,409

Luckily, the Texas Longhorn football team does not interact with anyone in travis County so they remain at zero positive tests since their June outbreak.

Austin ICUs are full, and the county remains at Stage Four.
