That's a disgrace and an embarrassment.
Why don't they simply do what they did here in Baltimore - play the games with no fans?
If you are going to do that, you might as well just cancel all sporting events, call classes and tell the kids not to come out of the dorms.
What a joke. Seriously. So the teams can go play in even larger stadiums in two weeks at NCAAs?
I thought the OP might be joking but it's real.
Steve Donahue, the Penn basketball coach and a great guy (was at Cornell when I was there), nailed it when he said the following to the Inquirer:
Donahue cited “the inconsistencies” in the decision: “To have to tell kids their seasons and their careers are over, while lacrosse teams are going off to play games and wrestlers are going to nationals. ... If you’re letting Yale go to the NCAA tournament -- if they’d said across the board, we’re shutting down all sports, you’d understand.”
You got what you asked for.
