Sounds like Union and Central don't even need to show up to play.

Anybody remember that year when E&H beat UVA-Wise (CVC) with that fake punt from their own 11 yard line?   Two memorable games in that series for sure, with that one and the punt return for the win for UVA-W at Wise.  I for one will be glad when they take this "cold war" rivalry back to the field when E&H joins the SAC.

I'm confused, isn't this week 5 as some teams are playing their 5th game?  The post topic says Week 4.

Some ugly football played tonight just about everywhere, but that's to be expected.  Weather has been horrible for practice, and no scrimmages.

Two years in a row that the SWD #1 suffered a 20-point loss to a M7 #2 team in the region semi-finals. 

Nice job, would like to see more teams do something like this.  Even add in some weight room clips, masks and all.  Throw in a little practice in the snow.

West Virginia is considering lowering the required GPA for kids to play sports for the remainder of this year.  Not sure if I agree with that one.

As long as Graham continues to win, they will be at home.  Since it was the Southwest District's turn to host the tournament, the SW #1 would host M7 #1 if they both advance to the finals.

Maybe it is not really the coaches??

Most schools are not allowing athletes to do both because one positive test will shut down both teams

Covid19 is more than serious.  It's the real deal.  There's no question about it.  I have had it, so I can attest to it personally.  We are trying to go by science and it's important to go by science IN ALL facets of any argument or debate or discussion about C-19 from start to finish.  For example, we have several pieces of sound data above in this thread giving numbers about C-19 that are accurate and there's no question, any thought stating it's not very serious or is fake is just absurd.  We have scientific data, metrics, and more to support this point.  With this written, lets CONTINUE with the scientific viewpoint.  We also have data suggesting throughout history that many, many contagious and serious illnesses for some reason or another (be it Darwinian selection or Divine intervention) children DO NOT transmit very well do adults.  From smallpox to Ebola to the Spanish Flu, and to even chicken pox (yes, an adult who has never had chicken pox can be around a child who has it and remarkably, the adult usually and somehow doesn't get it.)  Of course today, we have a vaccine for this as well. 
Anyway and historically, it is certainly possibly and it happens, children can surely transmit serious and contagious illnesses to adults, but it is overwhelmingly LOW in chance.  We have theories why, but still aren't completely sure.  With all of the above written, we have very, very, very little data so far on C-19's ability to transmit/infect from a child to an adult or more important and vulnerable, a transmission from a child to an elderly adult who likely has co-morbidiities.  Of the anecdotal data we have with C-19, and it's only anecdotal so far, it's becoming very clear that children are very unlikely to transmit the virus to adults.  Yes, it's possible and it's easy to cherry pick the one case in Iowa or Colorado where the kid gave it to 5 adults, etc ) but it's absolutely the exception to the rule.  The media has been and continues to beg for, to actively seek out, to look for this scenario and has been doing so for months, and they are turning up empty 99% of the time.  One theory is that the immune response is so overwhelmingly powerful in children that the virus is weakened to the point that the overall "viral load" in the child is so rapidly decreased that sheer volume of virus around an adult or other child is greatly limited.  Because of this, I am in fact, very much in favor of ALL schools opening and returning in class.  With that written, when I say all schools, I am talking about Pre-K through 8th grade.  I would be in favor of High Schools returning only with mandatory mask policy and would prefer a mixed curriculum of 2 or 3 days in school and 2 or 3 days online.  With colleges, I would halt all public attendance until December.  This is only my opinion, and yes, as you may suspect, I am in the medical field and have Dr as one of my credentials.  It's also how I contracted the illness months ago.  If we are going to argue scientific data to support an argument (a good thing) then we need to stay with that data or lack thereof when arguing the entire argument, from start to finish.  The data in my opinion is far, far in favor of returning pre K kids through 8th grade to school, and in High School, its tricky, it's 50-50.  

NCAA DI football has a dead period during February, then a quiet period through mid-April, all of which means they can't attend games or practices to evaluate kids.  They would have to do it by film only, or already have an idea of what type of player they are recruiting.  But yes, this is after both the regular and early signing period, so most will have already signed by spring and the money will already be committed.  So for recruiting purposes, spring football is a bust.

Better than nothing at all, which is what we are currently looking at.

Hadn't thought of it that way, but makes a lot of sense.

agreed, you can't make somebody stay if they want to move on to what they feel is a better opportunity.
