That's all I have to say about that.
We will not have anything in spring. That is a line of (I can't express myself without swearing) spun by people that don't want to get yelled at all at one time. We are witnessing a decision that will hurt student athletes, employees, and local businesses. All because these (I can't express myself without swearing) presidents and admins can't solve a minor issue.If there was ever a moment that could spell the end of USU football, it is this one.Imakeitrain wrote: ↑August 10th, 2020, 5:14 pmIt really sucks for the players.
As for the fans- it’s really disappointing- but we’ll get over it. We would have missed some of our most exciting games for a season without a bowl game even if we went undefeated.
Hopefully we can have something in spring.
And lastly hopefully sports survives.

It does stink. Tell Jordan we are totally bummed for him!taniataylor wrote: ↑August 10th, 2020, 5:23 pmThis sucks....pretty sure my boy will be coming home.
It does suck - for you and your son. I am just getting ready to move my youngest kid back up to Logan. I suppose I will have to move him back out at Thanksgiving. It is a pain. Hopefully your son enjoyed his time in Logan and gained an appreciation for the school, town and area. I hope he got an education and life skills to make him into a productive citizen. We, as fans and alumni of USU, are very appreciative of Jordan accepting a scholarship to play for our team and giving the team and school all he had. Thanks for raising such a hard-working kid who we are proud to have worn the Aggie blue.taniataylor wrote: ↑August 10th, 2020, 5:23 pmThis sucks....pretty sure my boy will be coming home.
Most states will have HS football this fall. The NFL is planning to play. And yet the NCAA conferences couldn't find a way to do it?

The reason is simple: they can't treat these guys like anything other than students, so a bubble is out of the question. They are stuck in their charade of "amateurism" and can't get out. They deserve this, but the players and the fans don't. I hope admins lose jobs over this. I hope Craig Thompson falls off a very high cliff.FL350Aggie wrote: ↑August 10th, 2020, 6:02 pmOKAggie wrote: ↑August 10th, 2020, 5:56 pmMost states will have HS football this fall.

This. What was the TRUE reasoning. I highly doubt they play in the spring. What a shame. Will anything be different in the spring? I doubt it.
The ncaa isn’t canceling anything- the conferences are wherein lies the problem.

This is by design. The NCAA gets to act like a big bad boss when it wants, and then dissolve into a confederacy of institutions when it wants to pass the buck. Its demise can't come soon enough.Imakeitrain wrote: ↑August 10th, 2020, 6:07 pmThe ncaa isn’t canceling anything- the conferences are wherein lies the problem.

You think they will have HS football? My son is a freshman and after this week, I think its less that 50% they will have HS Football.

My son plays this Friday. Utah is starting hs football but we'll see if they finish. Kids in salt lake cant attend school but can play football
I feel for the seniors. Tell him we are proud of him. Would have loved to see him light it up this fall.taniataylor wrote: ↑August 10th, 2020, 5:23 pmThis sucks....pretty sure my boy will be coming home.

Meh geo can post his political feelings imo (we all do it in some way with the current state of affairs). I just wish he being a moderator would do it without telling others their opinions are “garbage”.FL350Aggie wrote: ↑August 10th, 2020, 7:12 pmYeah too bad he didn’t wave his magic wand and make Covid disappear.
Thanks moderator.
All these posts end up in the sandbox anyway, just throw this one in as well.slcagg wrote: ↑August 10th, 2020, 7:43 pmMeh geo can post his political feelings imo (we all do it in some way with the current state of affairs).

These two posts right here are the reason we are where we are. It's not social media, or players, or the media, or covid, or unions, or compensation, or old people deaths, or (I can't express myself without swearing) unicorns or anything else, its this political (I can't express myself without swearing).
Have you followed ViAggie at all? He is joking as was GeoAggie. People were also joking when they brought up Tim Duryea. These aren't comments to get triggered over, just people having fun.Aggie19 wrote: ↑August 10th, 2020, 7:49 pmThese two posts right here are the reason we are where we are.

I'm glad they're joking. My comment was not directed at them specifically, just pointing out that where we find ourselves now is political (I can't express myself without swearing) and nothing else. These two comments perfectly sum up why we are here, in my opinion. I am frustrated. If we would have just got past all the garbage and worked together, we'd be done with this and looking forward to football, instead here we are.Aggie formerly in Hawaii wrote: ↑August 10th, 2020, 7:58 pmHave you followed ViAggie at all?

Vi is my favorite basement dweller here . After this is all over he owes me lunch at a barbecue spot near Laguna beach and then dinner at some Mexican spot in San Diego. Meanwhile we can debate if the Orange County airport should really change its name from John Wayne!Aggie formerly in Hawaii wrote: ↑August 10th, 2020, 7:58 pmHave you followed ViAggie at all?

College football did massively fail us. They had 5 months to put together a plan and they didn't do it. Definitely a lot of blame to go around and a lot of people that should be out of a job over this.Aggie19 wrote: ↑August 10th, 2020, 8:02 pmI'm glad they're joking.
