I haven't coached in the in those parts since 2005. I don't think you particularly cared for us. I probably liked you a lot more than you thought I did.

Not too hard, just more matter of fact than most posters, but that might come from your job. I'll agree, this group of kids is really impressive in so many ways. It's really too bad that you couldn't make it back here for more games. Hope you got to see the Summit Tourney.

I'm almost half ashamed to admit it, but not only have I never been to a SLT game, I've never even set foot in the Premier Center.

A video from AD Herbster about all the sports cancellations, and how it affects USD.

I've seen the question posed but no strong opinions either way, but what are your thoughts on granting an additional year of eligibility in light of the cancelled postseason?
Do you grant it to everyone? Just seniors? Just teams who still had a chance at the tournament? How would it work with scholarship limits?
Curious what everyone thinks. We are truly in unprecedented territory here. No season has never been cancelled. Not even World War 2 stopped college athletics.

Sadly, I don’t think you can grant an extra year. Time stops for no one, and the scholarship $ is gonna get all screwed up with incoming players. It will always be an asterisk like the 1918 Stanley Cup which wasn’t awarded due to Spanish flu.

The discussion, largely aided by all spring sports getting an extra year, has me wondering if this will be the case though.

When I look at the list of Spring sports I wonder how many of the student athletes are on full scholarship, or even half scholarship. This begs the question, how many of these will actually stick around for the additional year unless they are still seriously working on their degree.

If a student athlete is paying some or all of the freight, he/she might just decide it's time to get on with life and not rack up any more debt.

When I look at the list of Spring sports I wonder how many of the student athletes are on full scholarship, or even half scholarship. This begs the question, how many of these will actually stick around for the additional year unless they are still seriously working on their degree. First, spring sports didn't even complete 30% of their season. That is the number used to apply for a medical redshirt. So by that standard it is reasonable the spring sport athletes are granted another year of eligibility. Second, the point above is correct. Most spring sport seniors aren't going to stick around. If they can graduate they will do so and move on with their lives. Third, granting another year of eligibility to winter sport athletes is ridiculous. Those sports had completed 100% of their regular season and a good majority of their conference tournaments. Say you do grant another year of eligibility, what do you do about HS Seniors who have a signed NLI and are coming into school next fall? Sorry, no room on the team? What about the ripple effect that has on the following years?

So NCAA is granting an extra year of eligibility. How does that impact any our seniors coming back?
