Jumbo Fisher was talking about the possibility of A&M playing their games in empty stadiums this fall. 
 

I still think we’ll be fine by the fall, but this thing has defied my expectations all of the way around. 

Totally agree. Exactly the reason I started this topic...

things will have to return to  as normal as you can expect it to. People have to work. things may be different from what we are use to, but sometime in the future it has to be opened back up.

I (SETXsports.com) am preparing for a 2020-2021 football season that will start on time.  I have reached out to coaches and scoured football sites for area schedules.  I will be sending out preview packages to the coaches in mid to late May and will start with the previews on our normal July 1st.

This is my mindset as well...

It’s still too early, but does anyone think there’s a chance of no High School Football this year? I know there are much bigger fish to fry (economy to say the least), but I’m just wondering what y’all think. Thx. 

High School Football in Southeast Texas  IS the economy!!! Need that football season!!!🏈

UIL Asst. Exec. Director Jamie Harrison's talk with Dallas Morning News regarding this issue:

This is the hidden content, please

After reading that article, I had a gut wrenching thought. What are the chances they try to have HS football with no fans in the stands? The thought never even occurred to me, but then again, neither did any of the other crazy stuff going on... I know, I know...it’s 4 months away. But this China virus frenzy has stopped the entire world economy. It wouldn’t be anything for “them” to pull the plug on fans in the stands. It literally makes me sick to think about it.

I agree, it makes me sick as well.  If it is football on the radio, instead of in the stands, i will be listening to every PNG game.  I love going to PNG football, I have gone for the last 55 years.  It is far more important for the kids to get to play, but it is an entirely different atmosphere with no fan support.  I am praying for a season with no distractions, no changes & God willing, no virus.🏈

      4A D2 State Final Bellville vs Gilmer

      By blackflag · Posted

      That was an awesome video!  I feel so proud of these young men.  They proved the doubters wrong.  Bellville should be proud, too.  I know it didn't end like they had hoped, but we've been there, so we can definitely empathize with them.  Great season, Brahmas!

      Meh.. Everyone knows this. The kid that got injured wasn't lifting weights. Supposedly he was hit with a helmet in his elbow. In my opinion the kid shouldn't have been put in that situation. AD should've told the Varsity baseball players to sit that one out. I have no issues with the lifting or conditioning. However, anytime helmets/pads are on there is a higher risk of injury. This AD showed a total lack of respect for HIS baseball program.

      What has happened to Jasper?

      Maybe.. however..  Many athletic director / head football coach have lost their job despite the athletic program as a whole being successful.. if the football team struggles.  On the other hand, when football teams are doing great but the rest of the program stinks.. AD/HFC still keeps their job. WOS.  Newton. .. programs as a whole were fairly weak during those many years of football power and very few people even knew it.  Or cared. Yet, AD/HFC kept their jobs for years. Meanwhile, I remember an AD/HFC at Barbers Hill lost his job after every program in the school won district championships and even had several team sports (baseball, softball, girls hoops, etc.) making runs at state.  But the football team was mediocre.  Fired. I'm not saying you're wrong, just that perception is reality.  And the perception is that your athletic program can suck as long as football wins.. it doesn't matter how strong the athletic program is if football sucks.
