The First Domino Has Fallen

The Ivy is in a unique position since they wrongly don't participate in the FCS playoffs anyway. I don't know why they hate football players so much- all of their other athletes have an opportunity to become a national champion.

I remember reading that they don't participate because they want their students to concentrate on their finals or something in that regard. Unlike some other schools, athletes have to take their education very seriously in the Ivy League or they won't last long. I respect that, although I too would like to see them in the FCS playoffs.

Ivy League will make their decision about football on July 8th. I could've waited until then and posted the outcome, but I'm impatient. ;)

My old girlfriend Mila went to Scripps. She got caught sneaking back into her dorm (they had a midnight curfew during weeknights back then) after we spent the night out at a Molly Hatchet & Outlaws concert at the Long Beach Arena.

Rock on!

No great loss there. The NFL owners have been talking about cutting the pre-season in half for many years. Most of the starters don't see any real playing time in the first two games anyway, with some not playing at all.

Agreed. Charging season ticket holders full price for a glorified scrimmage is an insult.

Reseach well done, but I wish it wasn't necessary. 2020 is a year we'll never forget.

Thanks! Appreciate it. It's the most complete list I've found, hopefully it doesn't have to grow too much more - but I fear the worst.

I found this list of school closures, program eliminations, and cancelled seasons. It is updated on occasion, about once a day or so from what I can tell. Seems to be the most complete resource I've found.

Outstanding! Great find!

Thanks Laker!

I found it, read it, and thought nothing of it beyond that - then I remembered folks here might be interested, so I went back and tried to find it again, and it was gone. Fortunately it was still in my history so I went back and fav'd it, but it certainly wasn't at the forefront of most of my google searches!
