Watching local morning news and never have seen so many highlights of Indiana HS football games before. No games here to report so all the reporters were over there. Cheerleaders, fans in the stands, and bands. The whole kit and kaboodle. Like two different universes separated by a river. One school even did senior night in case season gets cancelled at some point. At least they will get a few games in and hopefully more.

That’s a good idea, I love it. So much gloom and doom and reasons not to do something. Then a state moves forward with not just football, but hope in returning to normal. I call it FAITH. Good job Indiana. 

The answer to this topic is, yes, maybe, and no.

Pretty much in that order.

I sure hope so because i'm tired of this covid ?.   I need something normal back in my life.

Also now Churchhill Downs just announced now that there will be no fans now for the Kentucky Derby.

So they might as well as had it on the first Saturday in May as is traditional.

This is yet  another negative sign for football any time soon in the Commonwealth.

Great point @Mustang I had not thought about that.

This had more to do with civil unrest and outside groups coming to town than virus. Was going to spread police to thin across city with a lot going on. I don’t think they could guarantee safety of people coming in and exiting.

NORTH OLMSTED, Ohio (WOIO) - North Olmsted Athletic Director Mike Ptacek confirmed the entire football team has been ordered to quarantine for 14 days, after a varsity football player tested positive for COVID-19 on Friday.

I don’t think there’s any other way to handle it.

KHSAA please don’t see this headline and decide maybe going forward wasn’t a good idea. ??? I’m ready to watch some football!

If football doesn't happen, it won't be because of the KHSAA.  They've already done all they can do.

That’s what I’ve heard from friends in the area as well. Supposedly was going to be a lot of outside things going on in conjunction with the Derby.

Very true. I appreciate all that they’ve done. I couldn’t imagine the stress they feel to give the people what they want, but trying to keep everyone safe at the same time. I know best interests are in mind at all time. Just hoping we get to see a football season in 2020! 

Shoutout to the KHSAA fighting for a season. Hats off to them. Unfortunately IMO football gets “postponed” again tomorrow. 

Enough is enough let them play.

The outcry from citizens to let fall HIGHSCHOOL sports happen is amazing. Any decision to shut them down is a dictatorship at this point. I went to a great AAU tournament in Ohio this weekend with masks everywhere. My son hasn’t looked this energized and happy in months.
