Virginia has a COVID case - out of ACCT - potential SU impact?

[UpstateSM]

The question is how many teams are able to participate

I think Kansas and Virginia will play but I won’t be surprised if there’s a couple that have to pull the plug by next weekend.

People are panicking on twitter I don’t think it’s warranted, yet.

Did that player play against Oklahoma yesterday? If so they’re in the same spot as us

I believe so.

Im not reading through this thread but doesnt the only thing that matter is we test negative? We havent heard about any positive cuse tests? Might be a blessing in disguise that we had positive tests earlier in the year.

No. A close contact with someone tested positive may not show up for 2-14 days. Everyone on cuse testing negative tomorrow does not mean much. Everyone in isolation then testing negative 14 days from now is much more assuring, but requiring that means opting out anyways.

This is a nightmare.

The Ivy League may be secretly smiling I TOLD YOU SO...

Yupp. The SEC just pulled Alabama and Miss. St. off of the court.

oh that was just a timeout

tomato tomato

 

[upperdeck]

ACC should have just moved all the games up 2-3 days just to have time to meet the 7 day protocol anyway..

I highly doubt any Virginia player was in close contact by covid rules standards against Syracuse yesterday. I think we will be okay. And the Ivy can think whatever they want. they would be wrong. Teams played all year long.

The NCAA actually cares about student-athletes this isn’t about money.

i like to think of the NCAA like a pep band.

Well , if I was a player I wouldn’t be smiling, I wouldn’t have played a single game .

 

[UpstateSM]

Outside of the players and coaches the Ivy League could not care less about this basketball season. Or any season, probably.

It was proven that they made the wrong choice. The season was played. Secretly they are extremely embarrassed by their choice.

I’m talking about NCAAT eligibility not medical science. All that matters is no positive tests from Cuse, right?

Here's my question: since Buddy already had COVID-19, does he always test positive for exposure to the virus now?

 

[Ryand877]

Totally reading into this, but maybe he knows what player

What if the positive test dude at Duke was Jalen Johnson who left already?

No.

It depends on the person. I had Covid and tested positive for about 6 weeks. Had another test done and tested negative about 6 weeks after.

I believe there are 2 tests, the PCR test which I believe shows active COVID infection, and the antigen test, which shows previous, non transmissible infection

Check me science or smart people...

 

[Sherman20]

if you did the smart thing sent them all to indy and had them bubble for 10 days things would probably go much better.

Exactly. But the NCAA is beholden to what CBS wants and that multi billion dollar contract. CBS is gonna get a bad product this year if there’s lots of Covid issues. The idiot network and corporate suits aren’t being smart about this...

Does that mean you can catch it again? I thought the presence of antibodies in your blood is why you become 'immune' to catching it again. No?

 

[Cuse1055]

Yes. Antibodies only last for so long just like the vaccine only lasts for so long supposedly. Nick Saban got it twice.

Hey Tony,

Feel bad for your program, etc. Clearly it’s not safe to be a Cavalier. Something to think about in the future.

Thinking of you!

Yours soon unless Jay accepts first,
Syracuse University.

Saban's "first" time was a false positive.

Yes. Antibodies only last for so long just like the vaccine only lasts for so long supposedly. Nick Saban got it twice.

Antibodies are different from the vaccine. If you had a mild infection the first time, you could get it again. And evidence is accumulating that the variants present a new threat...people who battled the original strain of the virus have gotten infected with one of the variants. There’s lots of unknowns. But the vaccines are highly effective and their protection is expected to last for a significant period of time. Yes, we all may need another booster shot later this year or next year to deal with variants.

Will this be the first NCAA tourney that is won by forfeit?

Obviously every case is different but I had a long fight against Covid where it still is effecting my respiratory now in March, and I had it starting in mid November. I didn’t have to be in the hospital or anything but it was sort of bad. Anyways, no one in my household (4 of us) got it besides me (the one person who wasn’t even leaving the house for work or anything of course lol) and it’s not like they stayed Away from me much or anything. I stayed in my room and bed mostly but there still was points of contact with food and utensils, bathroom, etc. so as I said it’s not like every case is the same but I wouldn’t worry about our team until we actually get bad news, if it comes.
