They’re just the latest conference to push off a return to organized activities. The Big 10 is also pushed back into May.

I don’t want to be the guy who brings you all a bunch of bad news, but this is just the latest sign the football season is in serious trouble.
If the PAC-12 can’t return to business as normal until June, then we’re just a month out from the start conditioning and stuff for football.

That means we’re one step closer to getting to July without a resolution, and at that point, you can guarantee all best are off.
Again, I sincerely hope I’m wrong, but I get paid to call balls and strikes. As I see it right now, not opening up the fields until June at the earliest is a really bad sign.

I really can’t stress enough that nobody is cheering for me to be wrong more than I am, but it’s time to start facing some dark prospects.
