Read that this morning.  That's not gonna happen, unfortunately.  Nonetheless props to Ohio State and Iowa parents for acting out.

Those parents dont have to deal with liability

Players, parents, and coaches, would have to sign non-liability contracts if they did. I better start a Covid-19 liability Insurance company  stat!

Big ten is not playing.  Most of the schools have athletic reserves set aside to cover costs for the year. For example Wisconsin has $200mm in athletic Department reserves with Michigan and tOSU even more.

Meanwhile in Tuscaloosa, the coaches daughter has to call it out

and Lord Saban is not amused either
