What's this?

If it is announced that Fall sports could take place, but without fans

then do you think the NCAA will give everyone the green light to resume? If so, then do you a majority or all of the DI-FBS schools would take the deal or decide to sit out the Fall season?

Yesterday I saw on an ESPN scroll that the 5 G5 conferences asked the NCAA for a temporary DI waiver for the next 4 years. At least 2 of things specified in the request was attendance requirements and number of sports requirements. Then I saw a report during this morning's news that suggested sports could resume, but without fans.

The pro sports could probably endure that scenario because their revenue isn't as depended upon ticket sales and concession sales. However, that isn't the case for college sports.

If you are fine with schools cutting sports that don't generate revenue -- VTHokie2000 04/18/2020 8:39PM

Yeah. When you can stream most all of VT games now, you have to say that -- IB4TECH 04/19/2020 3:12PM

The Universities have to get the students back on campus before anything. -- HOO86 04/16/2020 09:44AM

It’s the various state governments that will determine if schools open up -- RJHokie 04/16/2020 10:05AM

Yes. Because of this I think professional sports come back first. -- HOO86 04/16/2020 10:09AM
