I ain’t sure what’s legit or not, but I watched 13 kids give a top team all they wanted and now…they done.

Interesting.

Gotta sack out gents.

To find out a team that played with half it’s players today, can’t play tomorrow if all teams are supposed to be practicing the same protocols…yeah, no conspiracy theory here, but you can’t tell me that makes sense. If that’s true they just exposed the VU players and coaches. C’mon?

 

[vol66]

Annnnnd, if it’s true vaccinated players are now positive, that’s a thing.

Hell, by even testing the vaccinated NCSU players, the NCAA has broken its own protocols. Subjecting one team to a separate, higher standard.
And those postgame comments by Corbin are disgusting. No doubt he's been making calls behind the scenes this week.

Gosh am I glad to see you!!!

The thought of a Vandy/Fake UT final makes me nauseous.

 

[vol66]

You know what the worst part is?

It cheats me out of a college baseball game, a meaningful college baseball game. It sucks more for NC St., but we all, BaseVols fans get cheated. All of us.

I ain’t even got that far yet.

According to d1baseball.com:

According to the NCAA’s Sport Science Institute guidelines:

Fully vaccinated student-athletes and other Tier 1 individuals with no COVID-19-like symptoms may be exempt from routine testing. Student-athletes and other Tier 1 participants who are not vaccinated must continue to undergo testing at NCAA championships.​

If there is evidence of substantial or high transmission in the community, or if there are COVID-19 variants that escape the effect of the vaccine, then testing may need to resume for fully vaccinated individuals. Such decisions will be made in conjunction with local public health authorities and/or federal guidance.​

The updated testing guidance also applies to Tier 2 and 3 individuals who may be subject to testing protocols at member schools and championships. If Tier 2 individuals are not fully vaccinated, they must undergo and document a negative PCR test within two days of arrival, or a negative antigen test within one day of arrival, and undergo daily self-health checks. Further testing is based on symptoms. Tier 3 individuals who are not fully vaccinated must undergo daily self-health checks, with testing based on symptoms.​

Should state or local authorities require testing of vaccinated individuals, their guidance will supersede this policy and vaccinated individuals will be required to be tested.​

​

So why not test Vandy too?

I am wrong, apparently the NCAA can test vaccinated players if they believe and outbreak is happening.
Although, it still isn't clear whether Vanderbilt will be held to the same standard since they claim 100% vaccination rate.

 

[vol66]

In other words…if they forfeit today or they forfeit tomorrow? That’s ********!!!

Roger Maris didn’t deserve one of these, Vandy does.

The difference is everyone on Vandy was vaccinated, so none of that applied.

I dunno, I been here all night, it’s like romper room…I will reserve judgment but I have seen an awful lot of “firsts” this year, maybe I should of expected it.

Sorry, that doesn't fly after this morning.
If vaccinated players can test positive, like NC State just had, then vaccinated players can still catch & spread covid
If they can spread covid, they need to be tested.
If they are not tested despite clear contact, then there is no effort in effect to stop the spread of covid in Omaha.
Which means the NCAA policy is all about "not getting caught", rather than public health.

I agree with you. But those are the Covid protocols that are in place right now.
