It's been two weeks since prominent sports journalists reported the league was expected to ban non-conference play, but still no league announcement.
Do you think this issue is still in play?
Possibly and hopefully. I am sure there was pushback from Army and Navy. Maybe from some of the others. Would like to think Bucknell was one, but I think Bravman rarely wants to make waves. The fact that the leader of the Presidents' Council, Alyson Byerly of Lafayette, has announced she is leaving, possibly under duress, may undermine her leadership. She is a strong opponent of athletics.
It makes no sense for the league to pass any rule governing whether or not a school can play OOC games - especially with school not in session. If safety is the concern, simply ban OOC games for ten days before the first PL game.
