When you see schools like Harvard needing money, that just means all schools are hurting for money and they will be open and football will take place.
Harvard DOESN'T need ANY money. They just don't want to dip into the ~$40 BILLION bank account.Quote:

They're probably not losing all that much on football since they and other Ivy League schools don't give athletic scholarships (as I understand it).Quote:

I don't think it's up to just them, but we'll see.Quote:

Obviously you missed Sankey's tweet yesterday that leagues don't have to be on the same timeline... which to me says the SEC will be ready to go...Quote:

Noticed on Hailstate that the season open is still on schedule for Sept 5 and all events prior to that have been cancelled. So it looks like A&M may not be the only school starting back up in the Fall.
