It's not even about protocols. Goodell and an ownership majority can put pressure on nfl teams to follow strict protocols. Good luck trying to do that with college administrators and college kids. Especially at the bottom of a conference. I trust Saban to ruthlessly enforce protocol, but he can't enforce protocol for his opponent. Even if he does everything right it will take one careless opponent (see the Marlins) to make this thing a total mess.

The problem is you're talking 18-22 year old kids who have a 0% chance of actually following them, especially when you're talking about teams that are twice as big as the NFL. Keeping 100 kids in order is going to be impossible. Coaches are going to have to be ruthless about the protocols, and even then you're going to have issues. Given the age of the kids the biggest issue is not having 15 St. Louis Cardinals situations. You could almost bet money on it right now and get rich. |

I'm all for moving it to Spring this year plus guys like Micah Parsons and Rondale Moore have already opted out both will be drafted. You would have more guys opt out in the Spring but atleast you would have a season.

If they hold off till spring-players that opted out can play. Still be drafted and sign after the season is over. Pro scouts may get a better look at them.
Will be some cold ass games at times-

The good thing about the spring is we know that this will all be far behind us so no need to worry anymore.

The Big 10 had meetings yesterday. Seems like they weren't sure which way to go and wanted to gauge public reaction. This morning everyone had sources saying that they were shutting down. Then halfway through the day a Big 10 spokesperson tells a reporter it's not been decided yet. Could have given that update to the 100s of calls/texts they probably got asking about it earlier in the day
