Memphis' football game vs Houston in jeopardy due to COVID-19 outbreak


Memphis has at least 20 people within the football program who have tested positive for COVID-19 and "at least 20" more who are in quarantine due to contact tracing according to multiple sources.

“The dramatic uptick in positive tests, according to the source, has been attributed to a party bus that members of the team were on after last Saturday's season-opening win against Arkansas State.”

 

Nice debut for the new coach. Isn't it the coach's job to order players to abstain from such things? And if they ignore the orders, isn't that an indictment on what they think of the coach?

Interesting that the official statement specifically mentioned "social activities" rather than simply saying that they didn't get it from football.

 

BYU might be the only one.

 

But the Pac-12 not playing doesn't really change any of that re: Playoff field.

 

Virginia at Virginia Tech, scheduled for next Saturday, postponed due to COVID.

 

Everybody just keep telling yourself that college football can be played.

 

If players test lower than the general student body its because they are receiving special benefits not available the average student Not just steak for dinner and tutoring, but extra life saving medical care.

IF the players test at a rate greater than the student body, its because they are quasi-voluntary unpaid servitude. Get out there and entertain the SEC white folk

 

This might be an interesting story.
