This seems ridiculous! Not feasible for football unless spend bunch of money.

Arbitrary, capricious.  The intent is clear.

Where is common sense? Players are in contact and close to each other all week but they can't ride a bus together? Think people, think!

I'm trying to wrap my head around the simple process of hydration during the game.  If everyone has their own water bottle, how many water volunteers does a team need to get every player the appropriate bottle during a timeout?  Many teams struggle to find two little kids to bring out the crates of common water bottles that every player uses during non-Covid years.

Any mention, discussion, and media regarding politics or political figures is expressly prohibited on BluegrassPreps. This includes, but is not limited to the mention or names of any elected or publicly appointed officials, both domestic and foreign, by name, title, or by the offices held (e.g. - president, governor, chancellor, mayor, minister, senator, congressman, commissioner, attorney general, county clerk, magistrate, Beshear, Clinton, Lincoln, Merkel, Obama, Putin, Reagan, Roosevelt, Trudeau, Trump, etc). Any direct references or inferences to political terminology and activities, (e.g. - government, Democrat, Republican, GOP, conservative, liberal, campaign, lobby, legislature, filibuster, caucus, etc) and anything else deemed political in nature by the BGP staff is also prohibited from the site. Likewise, this also includes 3rd party links to articles that are political in name or in nature. Additionally, the use of names/nicknames deemed by the BGP staff as references to political figures (e.g. - Andy, Donald, Tricky Dick, Slick Willy) will not be permitted on BluegrassPreps.

Keeping in mind BGP's core purpose as a sports-discussion community, discussion of the the managing bodies specifically serving over high school, college, amateur, and professional sports leagues (KHSAA, NCAA, IOC, MLB, MLS, NBA, NFL et al), along with the officers, officials and the titles held by the individuals within those organizations is permitted on BGP. Similarly, high school and college/university administrators and officials, when discussed in a strictly non-political manner, are all permissible on BGP.

Wouldn't it make sense that you shouldn't have ANYBODY other than the athlete handling their own water bottle? And how do players refill their bottles if they are empty? You can't not touch a cooler.  Hydration isn't going to be simple at all.

It kind of defeats the purpose of a timeout (even if they are longer by a couple minutes) to have tired, hot and thirsty players trying to find their own water bottle themselves on the sideline.

I saw a team I know use 2 cart/wagons that had the players own bottles in them. Then during time outs sideline players pulled the carts onto field to the players to get themselves.   Great idea and seemed to work. 

Timeouts will be extended to allow players to hydrate. There are a number of solutions and honestly hydration is the easiest obstacle to overcome in all of this.

I think most of the solutions are simple. The point about hydration, was more that there are things that must be considered and addressed that most haven't ever spent any time thinking about. While the solutions may be simple, there are so many things that will need to change and be addressed, that it is going to require some thought and preparation.

Erlanger out. 

Boyle in.  25% capacity.  No COVID testing. 

Danville in.  But with every three week COVID testing. 

 

What a wild night so far for Kentucky HS football.

To any school that opts out, I feel sorry for the students that the leaders at that school say they supposedly care about.

Football and other sports are being played all across the country and in Kentucky daily workouts have been happening for weeks. Minimal problems.

What a terrible message for these students. Follow the rules. Show us you can do this and not have problems. But  all those efforts don't matter. We are going to ignore all your good work and not let you play the games you have worked so hard for.

Believe what you are seeing decision makers. Sports are already being played and things are going well. Let these young people play games.

To be fair, some places across the country are playing, and some are not. I’ve said from the beginning, there are going to be schools/districts that will opt out despite being given the ok to play. Districts have to make decisions based on what they feel is the best and safest way to proceed. There are any number of reason as to why a district would make the decision not to play. One reason could be numbers. While you are hearing the “let them play” group the loudest, there are some that think it’s crazy that football and other sports are being played right now. Not saying that’s the case with Lloyd. Whatever the case, you can’t just assume playing is the right call for every district. Each situation is unique.
