Sources: SEC ADs to Meet In-Person Monday
The Southeastern Conference has summoned all 14 athletic directors to league offices in Birmingham, Ala., next Monday to discuss its fall sports schedule.www.si.com
Apparently they have never heard of zoom
Fair enough. I've never used zoom personally. I'm sure the SEC could figure a secure way to hold a conference call.They could do something else but Zoom is one of the easiest video conference apps to hack into.
Colleges are going to get wrecked without football revenue. University of Northern Iowa has already announced salary reductions for employees and layoffs as they anticipate having no revenue from ticket sales/games against B1G teams and concessions.The ripple effect here is when a team like Michigan plays a team like Akron. Akron gets a few million to be lambs to slaughter, and that money helps go to non-revenue sports.
If they can't play in the fall then I fully expect them to make a go at it in the spring. Even knowing that the star players like Trevor Lawrence would skip to prepare for the draft, they would still make more money than any other college sport could offer.Colleges are going to get wrecked without football revenue.

The Iowa State AD also recently sent out a letter to season ticket holders asking for donations as they expect revenue to drop by over 50%. I'm sure every college in the country is in this same boat.

Hopefully basketball still happens. This current Illini team has a chance to win the B1G and possibly get to the elite 8. I also want to beat Garza and Iowa
