    Southland conference is going to announce a split schedule, half in the fall, half in the spring. If this happens we could still play McNeese later in the year. The November 21 date could bring a big crowd if the virus goes away by then, I am not holding my breath. That being said, I doubt we play the game.

    OK. That explains why McNeese called off practices.

    Has it been announced whether fans will be allowed in to games?

    The last I heard was 50% of stadium capacity and tailgating would be allowed. I think the 50% mark will depend on the governor's next move. The same with tailgating.

    I don't think JBE actually has the power to do what he's doing and dictate to us what we can and can't do. He's not a King! There should be more push back against him.

    While I agree, you really think the administration at the university will push back? Right now he is king.

    I was referring mainly to the Legislature in BR. I wish some of those RINOs had more of a spine.

    Rumors going around are, that the Southland will move conference games to the spring but allow non-conference games in the fall. I saw another rumor that said that they will allow up to 5 non-conference games in the fall and have 6 conference games in the spring. I don't know the veracity of any of these rumors. We should hear something from the Southland Conf today or soon. The only thing I do know for sure is that McNeese resumed preseason practices today.
