Help me see through the media sensationalism.


Nov 21, 2020, 7:57 PM

Are these the facts?
1) It's been reported the player was sick earlier in the week but had non-covid symptoms (he had no shortness of breath and no loss of taste or smell).

2) The staff kept him away from the team until he felt better on Tuesday.

3) He passed 2 covid tests (Monday & Wednesday, I think)

4) He was not symptomatic on Friday and had two passing tests.

5) When the Positive result was received he was separated from the team.

6) All the other players tested negative from the Friday tests.

If this is even close to being right:
What else could Clemson or any other school do in this situation.

Also if the Semi-holes don't want to accept the negative tests of all the other players on Friday why would they accept the negative tests for any team?

A test is a test and currently the most reliable determiner of being COVID free. Based on the FSU logic, any player that contacts another person after the Friday test could be a carrier, thus unsafe to play.

Surely a Clemson media type can find out if any FSU players ever tested positive on a Wednesday or Friday test. If so FSU would be hypocrites if they didn't cancel that game.

Is there any evidence to believe someone exposed to the virus is contagious within 24 hrs of being exposed?

Isn't it true that Covid tests are more likely to have false positives (i.e, Saban).

FSU has done nothing but suck for quite a few years now

Can't help but think that today's events are an illustration of the cause of that suck. The decision makers at FSU are morons.

Unlikely that this game can be made up so the half a$$ed Indians will not go through the embarrassment of having a genuine smashing by the Tigers. The only way they win is not play.
