Title: Spring Football in Texas??
Post by: JarMan69 on June 29, 2020, 09:29:17 AM
Looks like some AD's are looking to flip-flop seasons. What are your thoughts??

All for it.  Not sure I'm ready to head to the field in the middle of a pandemic.  It will take one or two outbreaks at a school among a team and coaching staff to shut things down in the fall.  My opinion of course.

I'm with you Doc.  Too many of us are in the high risk category.

FYI, we have schedules for many area schools, and are in the process of making assignments. They are all planning for things to "kickoff" late August, on schedule.
Keep the faith.

They could play each other. More travel, but, it would be reasonable for a good number of cases.
