Wolv, there were rumors going around that the Mich Gov is a Spartan grad and she is holding up the B1G from playing. Any truth to that?

From what I understand, I think it is confirmed she is a Michigan State grad :). The state of Michigan reopened a number of things today, and stated that high school sports could proceed (though it cautioned against, but did not prohibit, contact sports like football). I have no idea what role she has/had behind the scenes in decisions by Michigan or Michigan State as to football.

As for anything else relating to the Big Ten playing football, your guess is as good as mine. "Insiders" on the Michigan side claim they have good sources that say there will be a Big Ten vote on Friday on whether and when to return to play, but believe that at your own peril.

Aren't you the same blowhard constantly blasting posters for political content? But somehow it's supposed to be "cute" when you do it? Get a life

Guess you hate to see the facts that don't support your agenda!!!

The "major step" is that everyone else is going to play and they are going to look like a-holes.

Pretty much this ^^^.

I'm watching a lower level G5 game right now, my wife walks in and says, "so these guys can play but Rutgers can't? What a bunch of a-holes". Right now that's how the B1G and Pac-12 are being viewed.

Pac-12 is smoking big gas

Better late than never, but we could have had fast, cheap, antigen-based screening tests months ago, as I've been saying in the COVID thread. Testing continues to be a mess under this Administration. Having this technology in place is what will allow sports and public events to start taking place safely again and hopefully soon, as fast tests will finally allow proper isolation of infectious people in near real time, something that has eluded us the entire pandemic with several day turnaround times for the current PCR test, which was completely bungled back in Feb/March and continues to be sub-optimal.

The Plan That Could Give Us Our Lives Back

The U.S. has never had enough coronavirus tests. Now a group of epidemiologists, economists, and dreamers is plotting a new strategy to defeat the virus, even before a vaccine is found.
