So… After nearly 7 years at The Athletic, my time with the company has come to an end. They no longer want to cover Penn State with a full-time beat writer. Proud of the work I did and the stories I told. Thank you to so many who subscribed. Time to figure out what’s next!

I talked to former #PennState standouts @AmaniO and @jasoncabinda — both currently on the Detroit Lions — about the Lions' decision to cancel practice last week to protest police brutality and the responsibility they feel to use their platforms. Story: centredaily.com/sports/colle…
The University of Alabama has had 1,043 COVID-19 cases in the last two weeks. UA's response? "We remain satisfied that the precautions implemented prior to the resumption of classes ... are appropriate and effective.” nbcnews.com/news/us-news/cor…

SOURCE: Big Ten coaches are meeting on a call right now. Am told "it's a real possibility" that the Big Ten may try to reverse course and play later this fall.
Replying to @CBSSports
@CBSSports can confirm @BigTen is considering a schedule that would start the season Thanksgiving week. Could be pushed back to original January start date. Story broken by @jaypo1961.

So- it cannot be said that there was no warning that this was coming.
In 2017 @drharryedwards delivered a keynote speech about Black Athlete Activism as part of the @McCormackUMass Executive in Residence program. Player boycotts and demanding change via social media speak directly to this "5th wave" of athlete activism. 📰 isenberg.umass.edu/news/harr…

It appears universities are going to try to pin their inevitable outbreaks on “irresponsible” students rather than ... themselves, for formulating completely unrealistic plans just to cash those tuition checks.
