Whether we hear about it here or a day later doesn’t matter. Threads like this take the focus away from the game of football and puts focus on the GAME of covid. I’m out... and am sorry for contributing to this nonsense and won’t in the future. Quote

Fballfan15 Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 Question. No players tested positive so why couldn’t they just quarantine the ones that were involved with the contact tracing? Unless the majority of the team was which I heard is not the case. 2 Quote

Indiansreloaded Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 With the schools that have to forfeit due to COVID outbreaks could we see schools win sectional, regional, semi-state, and state titles that in a normal year wouldn't have a chance? I am referring to schools with 0, 1, or 2 wins out of the games that they actually played. Could see a school that has won 1 or 2 games over 3 or 4 years win one of these titles? Quote

Their season was so much in question in August. I heard they had low numbers, If they lost a couple. they were done. Southwood wow. They beat some good 3As.... You are right...1As and 2As are really vulnerable. Big schools can take a hit. Small ones just cant sit a dozen players and go on.. You probably cant have contact drills in practice, can you? Quote

Yes, we have contact drills in practice, at the end of every practice, we disinfect all the players shoulders pads and helmets, they have to take home their practice jersey and wash it and bring it back the next day. We spray and santize all our equipment we use such as hand shields, bags, blocking sled bags, et. al. every practice. 3 Quote

It's almost never a COVID "outbreak"...it's one positive case contact tracing out 15-30 kids who will never get the disease. 2 Quote

Muda69 Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 So much for Indiana High School football being a "no cuts" sport. Quote
Indian72 Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 With the Covid #'s rising, this should have been expected. This is why Ohio shortened the season and end much earlier. The fact remains the behavior and attitudes of people and whether they follow the guidelines or not effects many other people. Quote
Titan32 Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 The same dudes that are saying we won't have a tournament are the same guys that got on here and proclaimed without equivocation...we WILL NOT finish regular season. I know where I will place my bet. 5 Quote
