Many of college football’s most prominent stars make their case for saving the 2020 season as administrators mull what to do amid coronavirus crisis.The national and regional pandemic picture didn’t worsen in that short amount of time. There wasn’t a coronavirus outbreak on a Big Ten campus.
A Facebook post by Debbie Rucker, the mother of Indiana freshman offensive lineman Brady Feeney, that detailed the “14 days of hell” her son experienced while battling COVID-19 began to garner national attention. Rucker said Feeney now has heart problems and “bottom line, even if your son’s schools do everything right to protect them, they CAN’T PROTECT THEM!!”
It will be fascinating to hear the Big Ten explain why it is considering bailing so quickly after months of preparation, bringing athletes back to campus to work out, get acclimated again to the football setting and even start practices with helmets. On Monday, some Big Ten schools continued with their regularly scheduled practices; others reportedly canceled theirs. Ohio State, a sure national championship contender, went ahead with its photo day.
Harbaugh emphasized Michigan’s impressive COVID testing numbers — including zero positive tests out of the last 353 administered — as proof football could be played safely if a program is devoted to following protocols. He also quoted Teddy Roosevelt, saying, “we do this ‘so that our place will not be among the cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.’ ”
BradyMcCollough You make bold statements w/o any proof. A few loudtalkers in the PAC12 and the B1G is hardly a driving force to shut down the season and hide. Argument lacks depth.
