What will the 2020 season look like?
There has been a ton of discussions about this already, but I'm a data guy and would like to see the board's thoughts collectively on this, so what do you think the season will look like?
Re: What will the 2020 season look like?
I'm thinking there will be a season, but with a small amount of fan support, if any. (I'm thinking as of now, no fans at all).
Re: What will the 2020 season look like?
Sadly, I'm more and more of the belief there won't be (an FCS anyway) a season in 2020....just far too many variables, contingencies etc. to make it feasible.

That may be prevailing wisdom at the Crossports board, though you're probably among the younger posters there and older fans have a different view on this than someone from the class of 2014.
But if there is no vaccine, are we prepared to end all sports, all movies, all church, all assemblies of any kind for 2, 4, 8 years?

LOL...Holy Cross easily has the oldest fan-base in the country...we have maybe 7 fans under 50.
I just think most schools are going to take a pass on 2020, and hopefully get back to some sort of normalcy (vaccine or not) next year.
Re: What will the 2020 season look like?
Nobody knows. All four options are real possibilities.
Re: What will the 2020 season look like?
But since the poll asked just one option, I am going to go out on a limb and place bets on each one of them as per percentage likelihood.
Business as usual. 11 game season with no changes. 0% Odds 100/1
Mostly the same,little changes, just less fans. 5% Odds 75/1
very different, Reduced schedules, no playoffs, etc 45% Odds 3/1
There will not be a 2020 Season!!! 50% Odds 2/1
Over-under on games....under 7 total games with no playoffs for FCS

I've never wanted anyone to be as WRONG as I hope you are!!!! But I'm afraid you my have some solid thought behind your percentages.

I think it's going to be the Spring, 2021 season… hopefully.
