Heard Salem shut down as well. No cases, just an abundance of caution .

I'm starting to think 2020-21 is going to be known as the National Redshirt Year

Interview with Wood about operating an AD, hiring practices, Covid and the impacts it will have on the budget. Regardless of how you feel about him, it’s worth a listen.

One day after Mich State

BoSox opening day pitcher pulled after coronavirus setback, other stories stated he could only throw 20 pitches before becoming fatigued. "Rodriguez said Sunday that his bout with the coronavirus had left him feeling “100 years old.”"

For those of us still holding out a shred of hope for football, this ain't good.

1. Baseball has far less contact than football
2. Marlins would have more resources and more incentives for players to fight covid than G5 and prob most P5 teams
3. 2 cases last week, 4 over the weekend, 8 more and a coach today
4. Game vs Os cancelled tonight

Quote:The Virginia High School League’s Executive Committee voted Monday to implement a condensed schedule to reopen high school sports.

The plan, one of three proposed to the committee, would postpone the start of the high school sports season until Dec. 14 with the first games not occurring until Dec. 28. In addition, fall sports will be moved between winter and spring sports.

The new alignment will be:

Winter sports running from Dec. 14-Feb. 20, with the first contest date on Dec. 28;
Fall sports running from Feb. 15-May 1, with the first contest date on March 1;
Spring sports running from April 12-June 26, with the first contest date on April 26.

I'll take it. Let's hope we are able to stay in Phase 3.

Six weeks until kick-off? When is the ACC going to make their decision and decide our season?

UVA is a coward if they don’t play us this year in the 757. We already know they are cowards when it comes to playing our men’s basketball team.
