Guys, it's not happening, doesn't matter

I guess that's that.

Some of those asks would be thorny to put into practice, but that's not a crazy sounding list

Agreed. Most of that is quite frankly common sense, and should have ALREADY have been put in place by either the NCAA or the conference. 

There are a few things regarding eligibility/etc in the case of medical redshirt, missing competition / season cancellation, that impact NCAA rules and not just conference rules. They also impact a lot more--what if a player is a senior and misses one game due to COVID, does that senior get an extra year of eligibility and a medical redshirt? If the season is cancelled do all players get an extra year of eligibility? If so, what do you do regarding scholarship limits for incoming freshmen? I see those as less of a demand than a negotiating point. 

And there are a few, reimbursement for ANY COVID related health costs for either short or long term, that I doubt can be open-ended. If it's time-limited to a certain period after eligibility ends, universities can insure against it. But if it's open-ended, that will be a sticking point.

But it's MUCH less ridiculous than what the PAC-12 athletes put out there.

Rivalry week is Hawkeyes @ Buckeyes this year. The eyes better be prepared.
Actually, this is not about to happen, and I am almost dumbfounded that Ohio St / Michigan is not game #2.

Sounds like UConn is canceling their season

What a glut of crybabies. Anyone else suspect UConn's coaching staff gladly caved in? Or even lobbied behind the scenes to dip out? The pandemic excuse allows Edsall & Co to extend their flailing employment into another season while getting paid for doing nothing this season. We'll see how a roster handles missing a whole season, but this might implode a shallow UConn program that's already at risk thanks to under-attended games, bad season after bad season, and CTE keeping worried athletic departments up at night. Edsall built UConn football and now he's burning it down.

I'd rather have one or two games than nothing

I just don't see it happening. We've seen what's going on with baseball. All young, healthy people, all of whom have a significant financial interest in staying healthy and COVID-free, and this thing is ripping through locker rooms.

Maybe the NFL will get it done because there are millions at stake for the players, and billions at stake for the owners/networks. 

But I don't see how the NCAA/B1G will be able to justify this after a few high-profile clusters. After one game it wouldn't surprise me if you see based on a single player being infected (let's say a lineman) and in close/violent quarters with others, not spreading to 20+ infections on both teams within days.

In fairness, that may all be true, but with all of the conferences going to conference play only, what's left for UConn to do?

I don't think we are going to make it through camps, let alone games.
