Do you expect any form of NCAA tournament?

[LTownZag]

Will even a spectatorless or abbreviated version go on?

[Kong-Kool-Aid]

Not if any NCAA players or coaches get it.

And that's looking like a distinct possibility for Nebraska.

[TexasZagFan]

O/T, but I just texted my supervisors at my part time job. I asked them to get guidance from management, due to the events that have transpired since I finished my shift at 3 today.

[Zags11]

Its done imo.

[DZ]

Nope.

They are 3 days from canceling it altogether. IMO.

College kids living in dorms, very few tests out there, very soon several players will test positive, perhaps many, and that will be it. Tournament canceled. Absolute tragedy for our kids who have earned the right to play for NC

If Kansas were to lose in their tournament and GU move to No. 1, maybe a movement to crown them NC and it won't mean much at all, no more than what they've earned already.

I am sick for the kids, but it's the only choice to be made.

[Zags11]

Can they move it to may or june?

[ZagZombie]

After seeing Fred Hoiberg tonight, I wouldn't be surprised cancellations come soon. Absolutely selfish and reckless for him to be coaching tonight

Dixie, there is likely to be overwhelming pressure on the conferences to cancel the remaining tournaments. Developments have moved rapidly in just the past 8 hours.

I agree totally.

I was saying "if"

But yes. I agree.

And it doesn't matter anyway.

No team wants a bestowed NC w/o winning six games on the biggest stage.

[kitzbuel]

Most major campuses in VA are not letting students return after spring break and moving to virtual classes. UVA, and VT among them.

[krozman]

I only say yes because most players are so young and healthy that symptoms would be less than terrible on the whole. Now when one of the coaches gets it...…. then all bets are off.

MDABE80? DoctorZag? You both have touted your medical credentials and claimed that Covid-19 is overblown and basically similar to the standard to seasonal flu or H1N1.

Any thoughts?

I voted no. This thing is escalating every day. It's one of the characteristics of this virus. It spreads really fast. I have followed this very closely, for a couple weeks now, every day. If you don't think this is serious you are closed minded. The experts in this area, which is whom we should be listening to, agree that it's going to get worse, and it's going to get worse real fast. Because there is not a vaccine for it, and won't be won for like six months, the best way to fight this virus is called containment. The idea of containment is to do everything in our power to stay out of it's range for as long as we can. My hope is that we Gonzaga alumni, use our intelligence the way we were taught....to have an open mind and not be arrogant and selfish. You all know how much I love the Zags, but I like all human life more. That's my responsibility. If we can save one life, it's worth it. If we can save 100 lives it's really worth it, If we can save 1000 lives why wouldn't we be willing to do whatever is necessary to save a life.

No one will be happy if it's called off. I will not be. But I will survive and do what I can to save lives and defeat this dang virus. I think that that is to be our goal now. Do what we can to win this battle with this virus. Let's not be closed minded. Let's cooperative and be as positive and understanding as we can be. Remember! We ARE Zags. We are in a crisis, brothers and sisters, a national and international one. So let's ban together and win this bigger battle against this virus. SAVE LIVES>

Go Zags!!!

[tummydoc]

Can they move it to may or june?

Nope, players will have graduated by then. Life moves on.

[TexasZagFan]

Nope, players will have graduated by then. Life moves on.

Think of all the major league players that lost years of their careers during WWII. Ted Williams is the first to come to mind...he was a Marine fighter pilot for 5 years.

ETA: you can't just flip the switch back on, IMO.
