The Pac-12 returns
- Thread starter colhenrylives
- Start date
Very telling how as to how all this all got started in the first place. I'd like to say that this is great news, and it is for the kids and the coaches, but I can't find it in me to feel good for those in leadership.
PAC-12 still looks bad.

The PAC 12 maybe did not do this perfectly. However they were all about protecting their kids. Nothing wrong that. After watching other conference’s be successful they were smart enough to change their policy. Let’s hope that high school’s can now move on with conference play in December.
When you are trying to protect your kids from a pandemic, erroring on the safe side is the prudent way to go and that’s what the PAC 12 did. In know way did this make the PAC look bad. It made them look more caring about their kids and not the almighty dollar.
Go Stanford! Go Cal!

The hypocrisy and utter B.S. runneth over. It's all about the Benjamins.
If it was only about the Benjamin’s, then why did the PAC 12 postpone their season in the first place. In addition you’re cynical view point that the only thing the coaches and AD’s care about is cash, cash and more cash. I don’t buy into that. There are relationships and bonds that go far beyond cash. Coaches are mentors that teach kids how to be men.
PAC knew they were going to be left behind. So they took the noble road and followed the $$$.
When asked to a PAC 12 coach this is what he had to say;
“When asked why the Pac-12 is starting behind all of its competing conferences, Schill argued, “I don’t think we’re behind. I think that we are acting deliberately. We are acting in these students’ best interests.” Anderson added that “it took us a while. It was deliberate. It was methodical and at times exhaustive. But that was necessary to do the right thing, and I think we did that.”
But who believes a PAC 12 coach. They are all liars. Right?

The CDC mortality rates are pretty cringe worthy. The seasonal flu is often worse on youth than Covid. This entire lockdown was a complete disaster that has impacted far too many lives. The inconsistencies and hypocrisy is all part of the political agenda in what happens to be an important election year... how convenient
Exactly. But there are those (above) who’ll always pivot to the geo-political theories instead of science. The bias is as thick as...a swamp.
So please tell us:
1. Why the PAC-12 had to wait to finalize the rapid antigen contract with Quidel’s Sofia SARS antigen FIA? Never heard of it? Read. Data, son. Posting complaints about decision makers while ignorant of the difference of PCR and antigen tests, costs, and reagent supply chain issues can’t be explained with a sharpie.
2. Why such a breakthrough would’ve prevented V-Tech from having 23 players, and several staff sit out yesterday as the ACC protocol is to test weekly?!
The HS FB “states” are right now treading a a slippery and perilous slope. Let alone the schools without roster sizes like the Hokies, but simply taking a forehead temp and asking, “Do you have a cough?” entirely disregards the FACT upwards of 40% of carriers never have symptoms. If college football could not wait for the newest science of rapid antigen testing the PAC-12 has now contracted for, therein lies your “economy” claim. They were greedy. And there will be suffering.
Based on the aforementioned meteoric amplification (“it’ll be ready very, very soon!”, there’s your Benjamins at work) of protocols to protect John Q. Public, maybe now some will appreciate the wisdom, and patience, of California school leaders to wait until January for HSFB. Maybe....
The pac 12 completely embarrassed themselves just like the big 12. They thought everyone would go along with the bs and their bluff got called. End of story.
Nobody said they were liars, they just won’t say publicly how they really feel for fear of cancelling or firing by the ”caring” types. See, the ”caring types” run the schools, teach the kids and 100% run the sports media sans about 3 guys. Transfer reality, sir.
That's a very good question. I have one that is ready to play. He doesn't understand why he is not being allowed to play. He is bigger and stronger than ever though.....
Because for some reason while we insisted we have three branches of checks and balances at the Federal level, we thought it would be wise to place all the power at the State level with one slightly politically ambitious governor.
