This virus has been with us since Jan and I’ve studied enough to form my own opinion. I have access to doctors and med. professionals that I trust dearly. My opinion is our young people are being stripped unfairly of opportunities (athl/acad) for almost zero risk. Not right

As a dad I had the awesome opportunity to see sports played all summer. Yes, I let my kids not only play but share hotel rooms with teammates from all over the country. They had a ball. I wouldn’t change it for the world. Didn’t hear of any issues. Our family is thankful.

When you invest your life in an occupation there is supposed to be passion and emotion! This isn’t the umpires main occupation. They do their best but it’s a part time gig. It’s the coaches livelihood. Have some feel. This suspension of Scott Forbes is wrong! @NCAABaseball

He argued under control and logically and he was ejected from the dugout!!! This isn’t right at all. It’s the NCAA tournament and umpires should expect emotions to be high—yet he argued calmly on the field. Sad sad way to handle this considering the importance of the games.

It is incredibly disappointing to have the NCAA confirm a two game suspension for our head baseball coach - yet have no explanation for the call that ultimately led to the suspension. We must do better for our student-athletes and teams

Question for the @NCAA . What advice do you give to a 2022 or 23 HS graduate regarding their desire to be athletically evaluated by a Div 1 institution? I don’t want to hear video cause most coaches will not make a decision on video. These kids deserve opportunity! Plz RT

1. 30 kids aren’t on a team actually 15. 2. You don’t have to put them all in the dugout at the same time. 3. Social distancing can be practiced on ath. fields as well. 4. Outdoors is safer. 5. Teenage kids-much less vulnerable. “I’d rather live on my feet than die on my knees”
