If a player opts out from playing will his scholarship still be honored or will it be pulled the following year.
The scholarship is tied to the fact that the player plays that sport.
This could be a lawyer's wet dream. The player decides not to play and the school removes the scholarship. Bam. Lawsuit vs the school (deep pockets) and the NCAA (super deep pockets).
Time will tell.

I don't think streaming a meal is a profitable avenue.
If I'm hungry I'm not going to pay $20 for my burger and fries to be streamed to my home.

California closed the bars and restaurants today.
parents actually allowing their kids play college football in the middle of a deadly pandemic seems ridiculous

Those "kids" are adults and its not like college athletes are getting sick, let alone being at risk of dying so far. I'm sure the realistic athletes, the ones who know their future is getting a regular job with their college degree, will be wary and might sit out, but the athletes aren't going to be daunted by it.

cap their unemployment (- 600 bucks) and they will demand to go back. LOL
not so fast. The theaters are turning into drive-in theaters already like the 1950's

Teachers don't get unemployment, they were paid despite schools being closed.

Yep its getting ugly all around. Some of the schools playing hardball with the seat holders/donors as I expected. They really hope to collect program donations as if there was a season even though there probably won't be. And what does a "suspension" mean? Some thought about a winter or spring season, but draft prospects are not going to want that and there are too many inequities with some conferences able to do a season in mid-winter while others probably won't. Maybe they will host games at a neutral site or a dome.

Do 3 inning tripleheaders.

In all seriousness at some point you have to say the Cards need to call up guys from the taxi squad and get on the field or pull yourselves out of the league for the season. A set policy has to be followed and it has to minimize disruption to the season or else lead to canceling the season. Imagine if a team had this happen in September? No way games would get made up, MLB has to have a plan in place to deal with that.

I agree with the above posts stating that these teams have to call up players.
We cant'get to a situation where a team has to play 9 games a week to get the full 60 in.
such a bad situation for a team that has some momentum to suddenly have to stop playing due to their opponent getting a couple of cases.

At a guess, it’s because cases continued to pop up as late as Friday. If are no new cases today, there is no reason they can’t play the Pitt series.
And the Marlins were clearly expected to be a much worse team than St Louis. No excuse. Just looks like the Cardinals have raised the white flag.

The biggest issue is owners not wanting to play minor leaguers and lose a year of control of them.

Thanks to the shutdown democrats and the fear mongering media.
