| LIFE CV-19: Effects on life, work, and sports

I wonder how many other tests have to be positive for the game to get delayed?

Would be an absolute shame for this game to be played without CNS... But also, him alone shouldn't be enough to postpone it (I say that gritting my teeth). 2020 is so crazy, they may not get another chance to play it. :mad:
 
There is one way he can coach the game if by some miracle he tests negative tomorrow, Friday and Saturday morning.

Very well may be, but the UA admin were actively working this afternoon on getting calcification on ways he could coach the game (like from a private box). Seems like if they knew there was no chance, they wouldn't waste their time.
 
As I suspected Sark is acting head coach for GA game.
I've seen nothing definitive on that yet; just speculation. Here's what he said...

Sark's kind of filling in in my absence for anything that needs coordinated in the office. But we're going to do everything possible to get our team ready to play.

In light of any coach could test positive, we've tried to have a protocol in place in case we lost a coach, especially one in a leadership position, (of) who would step in for them. Obviously Sark has been a head coach before.

I'm not sure exactly how this is going to play out when the game comes, whether I can have communication with someone or not. So we'll have to research and figure that out. But we did have a plan for each coach on the staff for what might happen. We've just got to go from there just like if we lost a player.

I suspect it would be Sark. All we know is Sark will call the game's offense.


They are the only announced ones.
On the players in reference to a spike:

No, we have not had any indication of that with any player.
 
Saban will have to abide by the sec rules, which I assume are at least as stringent as the cdc rules. Someone here may know more about that however.
CDC rules has me chuckling a bit. The rules for isolation/quarantine are specific down to how much distance has been between individuals as well as how much time. There's a thread a month or so old which outlines the SEC requirements.
 
....hate this...as we all do....
Just cancel game and wait til SEC championship game toplay....( just joking)...
Sark can handle things....He is qualified..... he is capable....
Probably all things will be set in place before Saturday night....just follow the script...offensively n ...o crap...defensively..
 
Do you know the reasoning behind this? Just checking because there is some science behind this.
Let's see if we can find the article where Sankey and the SEC office laid out their plans. I know it's here, somewhere, and it might tell us the name of the doctor who is the main advisor for the conference. I can't remember his name.

It may be in a thread talking about how UA is handling this. I can't recall. I do remember the way they were structuring practices 'meshed' pretty nicely with how they'd laid out their rules.

BTW as I understand it the time aspect is all about the amount of the virus you take in as you are breathing in while talking to someone and how contagious they are. It takes so much of the virus for you to get infected. So if it takes for example 100 units (no idea what that unit really is) and you take in 10 units per minute talking to someone then it will take you 10 minutes to become infected. Now if a person sneezes or coughs on you then it takes much less time. Anyway that is how I understand it. Not sure if anyone has determined the amount of the virus needed for a person to become infected or at least I have not read it. To me it meets the common sense test.

You and I talked about the time specifications in the original thread posted back in July.

@ColAngus you mentioned this questioning quarantines.

They defined the "high risk" contact as those who are within the six feet you mention (and here's what I found to be the key phrase) for at least 15 minutes while one or both parties are not wearing a mask.

In this case, those people who were within six feet of Saban, without a mask, for at least 15 minutes.

Even before C-19 hit we didn't have players within six feet of each other for 15 minutes straight. The drills in practices are less than that.
 
2020 is just F up. They should play the game as is without Nick. The 10RC games will become the biggest game since we have to win out to get a shot at UGA for all the marbles.
Every other team will have2 loses...except the winnerof this game...
Most will have 3...
But...only if we finish season......if not...at least we got to see a few games....
