And the Pac 12 made it official that they'll only be doing conference games.
We've lost the following big time matchups Notre Dame vs Wisconsin, Oregon vs Ohio State, and Alabama vs USC. Those are some big time money making games, even though USC ain't that great, a Bama vs USC game is big money. We're not getting a season in the fall.

NJCAA cancelled the Fall Football season. It's just a matter of time Yeah, this is all just a slow process of them letting us know. The Ivy League shuts down, conferences say they're only playing conference games, ADs are floating the possibility of there not being a season, and JuCo canceled their season, they're just setting us up before the official announcement.

NJCAA cancelled the Fall Football season. It's just a matter of time I think NCAAF and NFL are both nightmare situations for this logistically. But they're still gonna try because both organizations are cash cows and absolutely morally bankrupt. I love CFB, but I think it's best for all these guys to stay at home. I think they both ultimately cancel the season, but I also think both start the season but get shut down very quickly because of the obvious.

Connecticut has cancelled their season

Connecticut has cancelled their season I honestly don't think we get much of a season this year. Maybe some spring football. They're gonna try, especially the P5 conferences. But I think they'll face what the MLB faces but on a larger scale. You figure 65 Power 5 teams, 130+ players, coaches, trainers a team. That's like 8,500 people. Some schools are going to opt out on their own, as an institution that pretends to look after "amateur" athletes. Some will fold to pressure. And some won't shut down until a governing body makes them lock their doors. But I'm not optimistic about it. Like MLB, may well start the season, but damn sure won't finish.

I have this gut feeling the SEC will be the only conference that has a full season.

Big Ten insists they will play this year and have their championship in Indianapolis.
Meanwhile, Penn State won't have any fans in Happy Valley this year.
I'm not so sure we're getting college sports.

Ross Dellenger of SI, is reporting that the season is going to be canceled or postponed to the spring within the next few days. ESPN is also reporting the same thing.

But you missed this part...Trevor Lawrence is saying they want to play and it isn't a big deal....so much so they're scared to shit these players are about to push for a NCAA player's union.

And a player's union would be the one thing the NCAA does not want. They made the term "student athletes" to get out of workman compensation back in the 1950s. "We just let you have endorsements... let's not get carried away and give you actual security."

It really is trending that way. I hope that's what we get, because these kids are smart enough to do what WWE wrestlers keep mindfully avoiding. They know where all the money is going, but could be going to better serve all students and student-athletes. Instead, the NCAA will cry poor in a manner befitting Mr. Burns. Universities: Naturally, I can't pay you much.

Yeah, I never bought you could have a season.
I'm still not sure how there's going to be an NFL season.

The "We Want to Play" stuff from a marketing standpoint is genius. One side won't read into it and they'll support it because "let's get things back to normal PLAY SOME FOOTBALL!" The other side knows what it's really about and is like "Yeah we support that."
Somebody earned their marketing payday today.

More and more it shows that college sports are all but indentured servitude.
