Let's hope that, unlike Houston, we don't have to shut down our voluntary workouts as they begin.

It appears we have a comprehensive plan and we should have full confidence in Tulane's medical staff.

They only tested those that were symptomatic.

Did I hear that Dr Stewart was the lead in charge of the AAC's handling of COVID 19? If so, I would think they would all handle these protocols the same? Nothing would surprise me with UH these days.

Maybe Dana Holgorsen will again red shirt most their starters and tank their 2020 season.

As of yesterday teams entered phase two of the summer workouts. They can have 8 mandatory hours of weight training, conditioning and film review per week. The film review is limited to two hours per week.

I was organizing the home office today when I came across the ticket packet sent by the Armed Forces Bowl when we played USM on January 4. I had to think for a bit...could that have been this year? With the bizarre times in which we now live, it seems like it could have been from another decade. Hope I live long enough to enjoy another bowl game without wearing a HAZMAT suit.

There will be 8 hours of strength and conditioning, 6 hours of walk throughs with use of a football and 6 hours of meetings.

with the use of a football...sounds much like Lombadri's first few practices with the Packers...holding a football aloft..."gentleman, we are going to start witht basics, this is a football"...to which Max McGee replied.."Coach, please don't go so fast"

:lol: love it.

On a separate note- ECU suspended workouts today because of Covid cases. Our spending of a $100k on frequent testing, engraining in our kids to wear masks and use of our medical school may pay dividends as other schools cancel practices and workouts.

I think Max's quote was actually... "Please Coach, don't go so fast, Jim Taylor is in the room "

Wow. Sec trying to maintain marquee non conference games in an
8 conference game + 2 non conf game schedule. So they’re trying to protect some of the non conference games as well. BUT, according to anonymous sources they will only allow the non conference teams to be P5 teams. Truly amazing
