I’m told Ohio Catholic schools have been working on various plans to leave the OHSAA if public schools force a playoff split, citing growing scheduling challenges. This would be a transformational change to high school athletics in the Buckeye state

So they are playing a Club Football game
Per, @Taylor_McGregor, they are going to start FSU/SMU at 9:15 EST amid power outage. She added that they’ll be limited electronics during the game — the clock will be kept on the field, no coach-to-player communication and no IPads.
“They believe they have enough lights in order to play this game.”
Tough weekend to be a collegiate facility guy...
An update on the power outage is expected at 8:20 pm. Once power is restored, teams will have a 10-minute warmup period.

D-I athletics right now:
• UCLA: $219M cumulative deficit
• Rutgers: $516.9M in cumulative shortfalls since joining the Big10
• Iowa State: $147M projected budget gap
• NC State: $18.5M projected deficit
• Dozens of varsity programs eliminated in the last year
• New fees passed to fans
More money than ever, still not enough.
Fewer opportunities. Greater instability.
This isn’t what college sports should be.

I understand getting rid of the actual staff.
But the radio team? Especially when they are two pros .

Breaking: Judge Sweeney of Colorado, who originally passed the injunction that class of 22’ players will now be eligible, has issued a statement.
“I’m not extremely familiar with collegiate sports, and therefore would like to clarify my ruling the other day.
I neglected to mention that the class of 22’ players must stay at their original school, and are prohibited from entering the transfer portal. That was my bad.”
What a mess, America.
