Sources: Valley to cancel fall season, look to the spring
Ross Uglem reports that the MVFC will attempt to move their fall football season to the spring.247sports.com
Best choice from a bad set of alternatives?
Maybe since they let camps start the least bad choice is conf-only. I'm happy I'm not sitting in the big chair for this decision. At this point, you have to follow the CAA/Big Sky herd I guess.Yep, I think so. Ironic, I just got done telling my boss the same thing today. He keeps saying he does not want to hear problems, only solutions. I told him that sometimes there are just no solutions ... there are only the best choices out of a bunch of bad choices. I think that is where fall sports are right now. I just wish they made this call before the Birds started fall camp.
I'm curious why you think they will be able to play football in the spring? There will not likely be a viable vaccine by then. I'm not sure what people think will be differentIt's official

I guess we'll get a lot of football in '21. Can't wait.

They know what the situation is right now (well, they really have known for months but could not decide). Maybe it will be better in the spring and maybe not. I would not bet the farm they play in the spring either. No harm though in planning a spring schedule and then see what happens. They can always cancel the spring season as well. I would rather see them do this than just say no football or fall sports in 2020/2021 school year at all. On the bright side of things if the spring season goes the second half of the season should be with fairly decent weather. The glass is always half full if you look hard enough!
MAC has shut down football.
You may be right. Football and countless other things.We might be lucky if there is a 2021 season.
