In response to BUFan
Only 1 PL game being played today. Seems like the PL schools are using a way stricter threshold than other leagues. Will make finishing a legit season nearly impossible.
I think that is definitely correct. In most leagues, if a player tests positive then that player goes into quarantine, and they may quarantine one or two others who had very close contact. There have likely been hundreds of D1 players who tested positive without their entire team being shut down. In the PL, if one player tests positive, then the whole program shuts down for two weeks.
One other issue is the two-week shutdown. That was the CDC recommendation back in the summer but they changed it months ago. Now it is seven days, if those affected are tested at the end of that time period.
