Because it's seriously looking like it will not happen.

1. Will all players get another year of eligibility? How would you classify them? Would a senior who graduates this fall be able to still play next year?

2. Will players still be able to enter the draft without having a year to help their draft stock?

3. Will there be any government assistance to help colleges stay afloat who need football revenue to survive?

4. Will the games scheduled for this year be moved to next year or will we just start anew with next years schedule?

5. Will TV contracts still be honored?

Will you call it a season if it starts in February instead of September?

That maybe our only option.
Conference only season that starts in October.
There will be a season in some form at some time. Too much money involved to completely shelve it.

1. Yes. Still call them redshirts. Need to be in Grad school to play.

2. Yes

3. No

4. Void the games and move to next season

5. Honored for games played but if there are no games played then there was no revenue and no payout. But the contact is still valid for future seasons.
Dennis Todd is tweeting that two sources say the ivy league will likely move to a spring start.
So we could potentially have two 2021 seasons?

The Ivy League can do what ever it wants... They don't participate in post season for Football.
If there is no football this season, life will go on.

I guess the only limitation is to finish prior to June 30th?

^^^ this ^^^

But I will lose some of the "lust" that I have for sports... at least short term..
Schools are just waiting for someone to be the first to postpone. No one wants to be first, the Ivy league is going to give everyone a chance to say we are waiting. Once they postpone there season on Wednesday.


GREENVILLE, N.C. (WITN) - Mike Houston and his ECU football program entered the first phase of the NCAA’s summer access plan Monday. This means workouts are now mandatory.

Houston spoke with WITN Sports Monday afternoon and said he is controlling what he can control.

“What tomorrow looks like? Who knows. With this whole deal it just remains so fluid. We are planning, and we are hopeful and we are optimistic that we are going to play on August 29th. All of our game plan workout, our calendars and all that stuff; we’ve geared everything around us playing a ball game in Dowdy-Ficklen that Saturday. So hopefully that’s what happens.”

In fact, Monday, July 6 marks the first day of mandatory activities for Pirate football. That means the voluntary workout period is officially over. This new period is being called ‘Summer Access I’ by the NCAA. During this two-week stretch, teams can lift, run and meet for up to eight hours each week.

Then on July 17, ‘Summer Access II’ will begin. This period is basically walk-through week, where hours increase from 8 to 20 for the student-athletes.

As of right now, fall camp is slated to begin on July 29.

Houston said his program has only encountered one positive COVID-19 test thus far. He said that student-athlete is already wrapping up his quarantine.

But to keep all of his players and staff safe, Houston and his coaching staff have instituted several social distancing measures, including the use of five separate locker rooms, and only allowing 10 players to workout inside the weight room at one time.

The reason ‘Summer Access I’ begins this Monday for ECU football is because the Pirates are suppose to to play Week 0 against Marshall. The rest of the FBS will start its mandatory workouts next Monday.

usfl played in the late winter, spring

I just don't see a college fb season.
10 games played in the spring seems to be the best option at this point.

Aye, a 10-game conference round robin would make sense, and it would be one for the history books.
