Go Indians.

I wonder if you'll see smaller numbers of players suiting up especially going to away games. Really no reason to jam 75-90 players on a bus when realistically 50-60 will see any playing time. Who knows what the usual size of a travel team is in D2 football?Cal U (Pa.) Class of 2014

The limit is still 58 which allows for a 2 deep along with a few extra reserves. Since most teams travel with two buses it won't be too crowded as generally it's 56 seats on a bus and if need be the schools could spring for a van for equipment manager & team physician to travel since division games most schools travel the day of game to save on hotel and meal cost.

How many can ride on one bus? In your plan...And where does the money for extra bus(es) come from? For example only, the PIAA released travel protocols for teams that says: "When on a bus, social distancing is needed with no two athletes sitting in the seats next to each other."Last edited by WarriorVoice; 06-09-2020, 04:59 PM.

Fortunately, I don't have to make a decision for anyone but me. In the PA plan to reopen, even the Green phase has indoor restrictions of 50% capacity. Let's use that as a plan which means double the buses, and you need 4 locker rooms. It also limits large gatherings to 250, so crowds would be smaller. I'm not in favor of anyone being put at risk, but that's a standard I can only set for myself...The Governor will set the terms for fans in the stands and School Presidents will decide the policies and procedures for students...We can only wait and see...Last edited by WarriorVoice; 06-09-2020, 05:24 PM.
