I should really play closer attention to what we have over there. Exactly @tango. The Jewell is surrounded by restrooms for the gentlemen of Gibson County.

Depends how many of their players have to quarantine and if they will get in enough practices. That's if Indiana football even gets to that point anyway. 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthernFan Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 MD had 2 kids test positive and they are related and live in the same household. This season is on life support 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This season is on life support I do not believe that, I believe positive test are to be expected. Protocols to be followed, precautions will be made, games may be canceled but not the season. Not in jeopardy at this time IMO. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or any team in the SIAC From what I know, they should still be really solid. It will be extremely tough for them to replace who all they lost, but I could see them only losing one or two games. However, with their numbers, it will all depend on how well they can avoid COVID spreading. If only a couple kids test positive but they had extended contact with 10+ other players, then that may greatly affect how good they are/whether they can even play a game.

Same with Memorial, heard that that our freshman class is a lot bigger than expected. Overall we should have an solid season, and the SIAC should be competitive again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I vote all non - athletes go virtual and put all the athletes in bubbles according to sport. A little more work for the teachers, some ticked off parents.... all for the betterment of our society!

Did the EVSC push back its school start date because of COVID concerns? I thought most/all of Southern Indiana was in session at this point?

The Catholic schools started back up last week as scheduled. I have not heard of any issues at Memorial so far. Mater Dei had to cancel Mon-Wed practices but as the article says, the results were false positives and they are now cleared to get back after it. C'est la vie...

Lots of weapons to use on both teams I ranked Memorial No. 1 in 4A at the start of last year and was mocked. I'm not sure the Tigers have the weapons (or possibility b/c COVID) to make another deep run, but how do you think they stack up in the SIAC? Still the team to beat until they're beat, I'd say.
