HoosierDom Posted August 28, 2020 Report Share Posted August 28, 2020 When do IU finals end and when does the next semester start? I wonder how much of a season they could squeeze in between the end of the spring semester and beginning of fall classes. Seems that it would be easier to have some sort of a bubble when no one else is on campus and there are no classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iuthruandthru Posted August 28, 2020 Report Share Posted August 28, 2020 I saw where one university furloughed 850 employees the other day. This unfortunately will continue to be the trend over the next year across all higher education Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted September 2, 2020 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 Saw where the basketball oversight committee had recommended that basketball to start on November 25th. I wonder if this will eliminate the pre season tournaments like Maui Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The extra costs with testing and safety procedures plus likely no fan attendance... just doesn't feasible or all that profitable. Go Hoosiers!!!

Also, since I know people that live in Hawaii, 14 day quarantine right now on arrival. I don’t see any school wanting to travel there and incur that cost. I think we will see low cost easy to manage basketball to keep the costs as low as possible. That makes most sense for conference only play and maybe round robin regional bubble games that have been mentioned previously on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
