With the NFL playoffs at night could FCS teams hope to pickup ESPN airtime? While it's true theirs a lot more FCS players per team then basketball but if college basketball can still travel and play why not football?
It is possible that some FCS might see this spring as a chance to get more exposure than they normally would get going up against FBS and the NFL.
But if I were running an FCS program, I would just skip. The logistics of playing football games in to May, with a Fall season just three months later, seems silly.
The expense is going to be too much. And the virus shows no sign of slowing down. The vaccines won't be with the general population until April.
I think April is a very optimistic view for the vaccines(s). I'm in two high risk categories (over 75 and diabetic). I'm hoping I can be vaccinated by the end of April, but I'm not betting on it.
My parents are high risk and are due in the next week or so. I'm hearing one of my college students is eligible in the next few weeks.
I hope they get a place in line soon. So far, I have heard absolutely nothing about when I can expect to get in line. This appears to be a county by county thing, with no coordinated plans even at state level.
