Which university has more clout in this nation as to what is wise or what is not wise than does Harvard? The reopen train is running down the track and gainning more and more speed by the day as it becomes clearer by the day that this virus is not as dangerous to the young as you and many...

Today they announced that the campus would be open for fall.

And that will be hard to do? Harvard is open, we can not be open?

Now that Harvard has annouced they will be open this fall, everyone else will just fall into line. The whole idea the football team will not be practicing in August is just silly as these chips keep falling faster and faster, day after day.

Michigan is a bad example. Michigan brings in more money for parking on their golf course than we bring in ticket sales for a whole season. Other than that, I agree with you 100%. I would put the split at 60% TV, 40% everthing else. Much better 60% than nothing.

Irrelevant as to whether football players can enter one building four months from now.

This whole thread is silly, based solely on suppositions about what will happen five months from now. Everything will be locked down five months from now? Silly. People won't want to make money five months from now? Just silly.

When has it ever been required that U facilities be open to all students for the football team to practice in some U facilities?

That last statement is false or, at best, suppositional. There is no proof that by keeping people locked down lives are being saved in the long run. If we really wanted to save the lives of our seniors we would be allowing herd amunity to be established as fast as we can. But, that is not...

There are no deaths under 30 in MN. Indeed, the youngest dead Covid person was 44 years old with pre existing condition that had him/her living in a nursing home. No others below 54 years of age. There is no threat of death to our players, coaches or support staff.

As the median age of death amongst the actually dead is 86 years of age I am not sure how you see that as relevant to this discussion.

Or let season ticket holders only in for some early games. Or one person for every three seats, or five seats or whatever. In any case, the majority of Gopher football revenue comes from the TV contract, not seat sales (and it is even close).

They don't get the $75 million every other Big Ten university gets from the Big Ten TV contract and NCAA. Guess what that means?

UI should be a total of six weeks only and such unemployment should not be ordered by the government at all. Just let adults make rational decisions without the government paying them to make decisions they would not otherwise make. Yes, paying people to quit is stupid.

Yes and from 1 to 4 is 400%. Big deal, up 400%. No one under age 65 without a pre existing conditions has died is a better guide. That is 0%.

Personally, I see each day as making a delay less and less likely. Go Gophers!!

If we stop paying people to stay at home they will return to work. Some will get this flu, some will not. Either way, life goes on. Herd amunity is establish. Like with any flu, some small percent of workers will die, but that will be true whenever they return to work now or three months from...

Come on Bob, give us some air. If conference after conference across the country decide to play football in the fall even this Governor will not stand in the way of games being played with or without fans. He just isn't that stupid. I can just see the headlines now: "Minnesota Alone In...

Again, an honest person can easily quote a person correctly, you did not. The median age of the COVID dead is, today, in MN is 86 years old. The youngest dead person in the state was 44 years old and was a nursing home RESIDENT, not a college football player, coach, professor or college...
