By what I am reading there won't be ANY sports this year....not until a vaccine comes out. Guys, we may have no sports next year... and that is if we are fortunate. Just sayin!Surely to God this whole thing of a blown over by then?

Go ahead and claim national championships for every sport. No one could say anything.By what I am reading there won't be ANY sports this year....not until a vaccine comes out. Guys, we may have no sports next year... and that is if we are fortunate. Just sayin!
Right. All remaining championships for this academic year have been cancelled. I assume this applies to all divisions.Incorrect. They have cancelled winter and spring. There has not been made a decision on Fall sports. If we get into summer and the virus stops like the flu does, expect Fall sports to go on.
Flu season starts in September. 12-18 months to develop vaccine. And then many will refuse to take it. Hysteria will continue. The country has gone insane. No logical leadership with a spine. It’s Fear itself.Incorrect. They have cancelled winter and spring. There has not been made a decision on Fall sports.

In a tweet Thursday afternoon, the NCAA announced it's canceling the 2020 College World Series amid COVID-19 concerns.
In a statement on Twitter, NCAA wrote: "NCAA President Mark Emmert and the Board of Governors canceled the Division 1 men's and women's 2020 basketball tournaments, as well as all remaining winter and spring NCAA championships."

"This decision is based on the evolving COVID-19 public health threat, our ability to ensure the events do not contribute to spread of the pandemic, and the impracticality of hosting such events at any time during this academic year given ongoing decisions by other entities."
Surely to God this whole thing of a blown over by then?
....the Fall sports like women's basketball........
??????
Ah, Volleyball. Thanks, I was confused.I meant volleyball. IN Texas that is by far our biggest women's sport by attendance.

Do any High Schools in Texas sponsor men's volleyball?
None that I know of. Volleyball is seen as a women's sport only to balance out football, the men's sport only. Since both sexes have basketball, tennis and softball/baseball. I assume it is Title IX pressure or federal dept of education pressure to have approximately equal numbers of participants by sex. At Texas, since you have 100+ football players counting walkons, they add rowing/crew to women's volleyball to make the numbers.
Omaha has a minor league team that uses the stadium, too, so the CWS dates can't be changed and there may not be a resumption of spring sports, anyway.seems a bit premature. Omaha has that thing down. What is the rush?

However, youth volleyball participation is growing while tackle football participation is declining. (not that they actually play tackle football in Texas. ).
Just curious. Seems like the only NCAA D-I schools which sponsor varsity men's volleyball are in the Big 10 & PAC-12 areas. I believe Lander College in Greenwood (SC) fields a varsity men's volleyball team. Now they are, I believe, NCAA D-III and don't sponsor football.None that I know of.

And that's the problem: you will come.I don’t know if all this is overkill, logical decision making, or a threat more dire than we understand. I do believe if it ends up being overkill and the threat becomes minimal in the not too distant future, people will call bs on future warnings about most anything. For the time being however, come on Mr. Ridley. Play the Masters. If you play it, we will come.
Correct - when Rosenblatt was torn town as part of building TD Ameritrade, the AAA Omaha Storm Chasers opted to build their own park way out in the 'burbs. It also keeps them from having an annual two-week road trip in late June.The minor league team in Omaha has their own ballpark.
Since baseball is a marathon and not a sprint, I don't see how you can get enough games in before postseason play begins.seems a bit premature. Omaha has that thing down. What is the rush?
Sure will, and in that time frame I’ll likely be around hundreds of people anyway. Imo, an open air golf tournament where you can be mobile poses no greater risk than an enclosed work place, restaurant, or grocery store. I’m certainly no expert, but how is a golf tournament more risky than the places I mentioned?And that's the problem: you will come.

Does it matter? This team wouldn't have made it to a Super regional much less the college world series.Surely to God this whole thing of a blown over by then?
