In one week the US added 105,000 new cases and more then 2,000 deaths. The peak isn’t supposed to happen for another 3-5 weeks.
Increased testing has found more infected people, yes.It is clear that based on the opinions of a few on here is exactly why we are in the situation we are now. I wonder what the opinions will be on April 12.
Since Thursday Ohio has almost doubled the # of cases.
Thursday there were 867 and today there are 1,653 cases.
Yes !Not saying I want this to happen, but what would you guys think of them moving the season into the summer, like they’re saying they might do in college football?
There were 37 games on the boys side that still had to be played in order to crown four state champions. It wasn’t happening.
This thought takes the approach of what “the players and the fans” want. That ultimately doesn’t matter. There wasn’t a way the OHSAA was going to be able steamroll through all these games when the Governor himself was literally saying “we don’t want mass gatherings.” And the other two factors beneath the surface, although never explicitly stated, was that some of the facilities still in use when the tourney was postponed were not going to play ball with continued hosting in light of DeWine’s comments and the wishes of their facilities’ owners (e.g. Ohio U/Convocation Center) and there were also some concern if the schools themselves should even continue playing if the OHSAA gave them the choice.The games could have happened. HS players do not need a week between games. 3 games in a week is more than doable. Finish up the next week. They do not even need to go to Columbus. The players and the fans would have been happy to sacrifice the format.
I don’t think they’re going to pull college football in the summer off. Myriad of transportation and related finance issues by moving it up to the summer, the networks would have concerns, almost assuredly a drop-off in ticket revenue. Rick Neuhiesel made the point that there’s actually a huge concern among many college coaches right now that they may lose players left and right on grade eligibility issues for the summer because of the sudden change and broken transition in the spring semester and how kids are taking their classes, doing their tests etcNot saying I want this to happen, but what would you guys think of them moving the season into the summer, like they’re saying they might do in college football?
Start the HS sports seasons July 1 instead of August 1? I think it is a bad idea that has zero chance of that happening.Not saying I want this to happen, but what would you guys think of them moving the season into the summer, like they’re saying they might do in college football?
If you want riots and all hell breaking loose try to enforce a lockdown for the next 6-8 monthsDoes anybody think there will actually be H.S. football in Ohio this fall?
If you do your only fooling yourself.
Next week, Gov Mike DeWine will close schools for the remainder of the school year. No spring musicals, no prom and no graduation.
OHSAA will follow by cancelling all spring sports.
Late May, Gov Mike DeWine will close schools over summer break, announcing that schools may reopen sometime time in late August.
Schools will be reopened with the restriction of no extracurricular activities..
Early August, OHSAA cancels all fall sports.
Early October, Gov. DeWine announces that all school activities may resume November 1st.
No sarcasm here. This is what we are going to face over the next 6-8 months.
Cute.Education.
Given Dewines ineptitude I wouldnt be surprised.The possibility of delaying the fall sports season is very real. Discussions have already taken place and more will be held about this matter.
Who cares when 95% of cases are mild? The number jump is due to testing, not an explosion of new infections.It is clear that based on the opinions of a few on here is exactly why we are in the situation we are now. I wonder what the opinions will be on April 12.

Authoritarianism is never a great job.MAGA, great job governor. Don't pay any attention to this yahoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have they tested 100k yet ?Authoritarianism is never a great job.
Have we reached 100k cases in Ohio yet? Asking for dr. Acton.
If it's safe enough for kidding to be riding buses together, sitting in classrooms together,and eating lunch together, it will be safe enough for sports.The other thing to think of - sanitation. If we play football the sanitation stipulations are probably going to be hefty. Can all schools afford or have the man power to abide by something like this? There’s a lot to think about here. I tend to worry about not having the correct preparation time.
No No No.If it's safe enough for kidding to be riding buses together, sitting in classrooms together,and eating lunch together, it will be safe enough for sports.
Not really. We are doing that online.Education.
Sort of.Not really. We are doing that online.
Not saying I want this to happen, but what would you guys think of them moving the season into the summer, like they’re saying they might do in college football?
Why do you say sort of. Our district we are doing it online, and every distict in PA that I know of is doing it online. And as time goes on, we will get better at it and get any kinks out and perfect itSort of.

No.Why do you say sort of. Our district we are doing it online, and every distict in PA that I know of is doing it online. And as time goes on, we will get better at it and get any kinks out and perfect it
By my calculations if we had 100K a few weeks ago, we have to be around 100 million ohioans and nearly a million deaths thus far.Authoritarianism is never a great job.

What does No mean???
