Wolverine Wednesday: The Unknown

This is strangest time in history for sports.  Nobody knows if and when their favorite sport will come back.   The NBA is trying a way to do their playoffs, MLB is trying to squeeze in their season, the NFL doesn't know when they will start, and college football doesn't know if they can play if there isn't any students on campus.  

The California State Schools closed their doors for the fall semester and will continue with virtual classes.   What does that mean for UCLA or CAL football?  We don't know.  

The MAC has cancelled a number of sports end of the year tournaments for the next 4 years already.  Florida Tech has completely closed their football program. 

The NCAA is not going to mandate any return to sports.  It will be up to the State Government, the University Presidents, and large organizations like the Big Ten.  

I don't have the answer but I'm not loving the outlook for sports in 2020.  

• Purdue Guard (basketball) Nojel Eastern is in the transfer portal.  He clearly should head to EMU.  

• One year ago today, Coach B left for the CAVS.   What a bad decision that was and I can't believe he didn't know that before he took that role.  

• Did you know that Jimmy has hired a former Navy Seal to help players become better team leaders? I didn't and love that.  

• Don Brown went on Jon Jansen's podcast and talked about current players stepping up.
