Well that's because a player has tested positive for Coronavirus and has possibly infected dozens of other players.

Feel like the odds of someone on one of the like 300 college teams having it are pretty good. I will be surprised if the tournament happens

I don�t think he really has any obligation to stay away from work for the protection of others. You gotta get to work.

IMHO 50/50 odds right now that the tourney is canceled

which would be EXTREMELY lame for SDSU, as they would be added to the San Diego Sports Curse list of victims.

That might just save the Tournament. If they can make it though the Conference Tourneys no fans and nobody gets confirmed to have it, they may run the bracket.

Top two teams Gonzaga vs SDSU. One game on a trampoline court to decide the champ.

I don't know that Hoiberg testing negative should change a lot, so few people have actually been tested that they have no idea how many coaches or players could be communicable and it takes like a week to show symptoms.

going to work in a crowded gym with the flu is also extremely loving stupid btw

Konstantin: Jun 20, 2005; And the Lord said, "Look, they are one people, and they have all one language; and this is only the beginning of what they will do; nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them.

Apparently Hoiberg was examined by a doctor and cleared before the game. I have no clue what that doctor was thinking, but that mitigates the issue to an extent. Even if a medical professional said there was no risk, he should have been mindful of his status as a public figure and set an example for everyone by not working while sick.

I think there is a 100% chance the tourney is at least suspended for a month before it ends. And I think it's much higher than 50% that it will be canceled. Even one kid on any of the teams testing positive will suspend the tournament.

The only question for all the remaining leagues is: Do you want everything to be cancelled live on television like the NBA or do you want to do it before then.

The Big Ten Tournament is in hyperflux because it seems like nobody is willing to make a cancellation call on it or not.
