What are the chances of an ol' MWC battle:
BYU vs TCU to fill in for the lost game 2020..?
Everything seems to be on hold until our conference make up its mind on conference only, conference plus 1, or what ever.

Marlins are screwing up everything. Coming from a state where the virus is out of control, I guess we should not be surprised.

Personally I don't think Kroger looks that great.

A lot of these schools and conferences that are cancelling their fall season are ones that do not have the resources to test continually throughout the season. Those that do have resources and the testing equipment should be able to navigate through the fall, and obviously you wouldn't want to play a school that does not have the same protocol as you.
-
I believe the season will get underway the end of August/1st of September. I just hope we can finish it.

For those three teams, that is a good thing.

Texas Motor Speedway is hosting a race this weekend at 50% capacity. Will be interesting to see if they can pull it off safely. I would imagine are Athletic Directors will be watching closely.

Completely worthless fact of the day:
if one wanted to invest enough at the time of the school's most recent national championship in football to finance a complete 4-year education at UT Austin today, that person would have needed to set aside $51,280.
At OU - $18,164
At Texas A&M: $33.72
Sadly, that $33.72 today would probably be about the value of an aggy-level education.
A value of $33.72? That much?

More talk about Mond
If we do have football... and Mond is the starting QB
"I'd rather go 0-12 and protect our values and history than see Mond play."
What values? They talk about all these self righteous values and never follow them. They cheat and cheat and cheat.

I would imagine football for most P5 teams is a money maker because of TV rights as well as ticket/suite/club seat sales. The other sports depend on football revenue to survive.

Hmmm, receiving their 8th(?) NCAA sanctions may indeed put them at the top. EDIT- Looked it up. They move from tied for fourth most penalized to tied for third most penalized. Plus they are now one of the five most penalized teams.
Well by the time Jimbo's contract is up, they'll be in the lead.

Without paying players, Texas A&M is nothing more than a Miss. State, Kentucky, or South Carolina in football. Just a mediocre team who thinks they are the next Alabama.

I had not driven close by the stadium since last fall, so I went yesterday. It is just as ugly as the pictures look maybe worse. The side by Texas Live looks okay, but the rest of it is hideous. What were they thinking, and who signed off on this monstrosity? The "old" stadium is 1000 times better looking.

My source said they were saying they had 30%+ budget shortfall. I'm a little surprised, they were on my daughters final three so I went along to an on campus honor college get together just a few months ago. They specifically mentioned how they had such a strong endowment, something big changed.
That I haven't heard. They do have a sizable endowment, but it too was probably affected by the oil prices and the stock market. TCU was in the middle of a billion dollar campaign when this hit. Unless things turn around quickly it will be difficult to reach to the goal. They are about 2/3rds there. A crumbling economy is going to hurt all colleges in the near term. They better get ready.

They are probably preparing for the worst in case we have another virus quarantine. It's been a rough year for education.

A distant associate of mine that does some associate prof work at TCU is telling me they just cut everyones retirement contributions by 50%. According to him, It is temporary for the Administration, permanent for the faculty and staff.
What they did is cut the TCU contribution from 11% of your salary per year to 8% per year.

Bottom line is Gundy picked the wrong shirt to wear at the wrong time especially in these politically charged times.
-
Gundy has a thousand OSU shirts to pick from and he chooses that one to wear? Got to question his thought process.

I would not want to play a team that is not testing all of their players constantly. Houston really screwed this up. Hopefully a lesson for all.

Sadly the wealthy Austin real estate developers were not successful.

Add BYU this year plus the 9 conference games and start Aug. 29. I thing waiting until the end of September is not smart. Everyone is going to need some off weeks during the season this year.
