This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Do you not understand the idea by DBCooper

That it’s easier to keep a few hundred people separate from each other vs a few thousand in a finite space? Or is this another one of your less than 5k will die views?

You can easily figure out how to keep a few hundred people separate from each other by 6 to 10 feet. Each athlete can get one dorm room, you can have set times for showering, gym time, eating, etc. Stagger how they enter the buildings, locker room, classes, etc. The biggest obstacle is the game itself. But if you have consistent testing you can keep infection potential down to extremely small chance. At the end of the day it’s all about keeping the odds downs as low as possible and proper isolation and PPE when needed. You can do that on a campus with several hundred students. You can’t do that with thousands
