How much are the Covid protocols costing each football program ???

Has to be hundreds of tests a week.
Isolations, quarantines, medical care.

How much will that end up being???
Anybody have a guess.

A lot less than a single human life.

$50 million dollars + @ the B1G schools. :dhd:

Lost net profits.

Which human are we talking about?

I need context.

outofyourmind · Aug 20, 2020

I guess it all comes down to the number of players getting sick.
I mean more than testing positive and self isolating for a week.

I thought maybe someone had heard a number thrown out there.

I haven't even heard anybody talking about it.

You sure about that? I know a few low life's that aren't worth a shit.

For OSU, I heard about $110 million

It’s costing the Longhorns another year with the champion of mediocrity, Tom Herman, because there’s no way they get rid of him after this tumultuous year.

That's what they said on the radio. Loss of a season would be about that much.

I knew it would be in the millions, but nothing like that.

Looks like a lot of programs won't make it.

OSU also has a 102,000(or so) seat stadium. I'd guess every home game brings in $17-18,000,000 plus parking, concessions, etc.

Na, because then it would free up a scholarship.

I'd guess that lost net profits rather than gross revenue, if a decent bowl game $ is included.

Bummer. Y'all need to have a bake sale or something. But at least you don't suffer the humiliation of losing to Oregon.

I thought I read something a couple weeks back that said the projected testing for a full season would be around 50k per school.. Now this was before the saliva testing that is much cheaper than the swab testing.
