These under 1% numbers are very good. So I still don’t understand the complete shut down. They should still be able to at least practice you would think. IMO🤔

Mel Pearson did an interview on the Michigan Insider a couple days ago and said that the athletic department told them that the hockey players could go outside, run/workout in small groups, skate on outdoor rinks, ponds, etc. So I would assume it would be similar for basketball and there not actually trapped inside for the entire two weeks.

I used to shovel my driveway as a kid so I could put up shots on my garage hoop!

That’s not AD data though, right? Wouldn’t you expect a massive increase in testing and positives with students back on campus?

Sorry this looks confusing because @quickdarshan apparently deleted his post.

418

Yes, that was the whole university data. But I think overall, you can’t same as last three months.

419

Yeah, screenshotted the wrong part I wanted to focus on.

420

Is there anyone or anything that has compiled these weekly reports over the last few months, or even back into the fall?

421

Just going back through my old emails it looks like 11, 22, 9, 9, 2, 6, 13 over the last few weeks.

422

Dylan, those numbers are what? Weekly Covid cases of just athletes, athletes/coaches/staff, or all students/professors/staff?
