    For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

    Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

    • I have no doubts that shutting down the season (if it indeed does get shut down) has as much to do with these student athletes organizing with demands as it does with Covid.

And even if campuses are closed, I don't see why grants-in-aid could not be given to allow student-athletes to be close their academic of other support structure.

        It seems like the US is determined to make everything worse. Quarantine just enough to cause serious damage to the economy but not enough to stop the spread. Pass a stimulus bill that is marginally helpful to those really hurt but devastating to the next generation. Open up everything but schools so the next generation won’t be equipped to fix the Boomer fuckups. Time to get real. America is too divided to actually solve the problem. At least let us enjoy college sports during the implosion.

          So does everybody get an extra year? And what about incoming recruits? Do we raise the scholarship limits?

          There is no way somebody doesn’t get screwed here.

            No doubt it’s the kids. That’s the only really constant when it comes to COVID related decisions.

              I hear you. This has been fully messed up. I have two kids at university and this is messing with them. We're all losing a year and it sucks.

                Sure, if they want it. But those that can get paid will move on to the NFL. And sure, raise scholarship limits for a year for those schools that can still afford it. Let the culling begin.

                Yes, we're all getting screwed in some way. It's a pandemic. Those things happen. Just have to try to get screwed as little as possible.

                        And this is why I don't care of they play. It is only about the P5...fuck everyone else.

                        Well guess what? Now you get a taste of what it is like.
