Yeah, I know COVID changed a lot of that, but it's an act of God that no one could help. We love ya, but you need to move on to the next thing in your life".
No doubt, COVID has wreaked havoc on sports......just as it has done in all walks of life. But, many people have lost lives, jobs, businesses and other opportunities due to COVID, and they didn't get a "do-over". So, I don't know why people believe student athletes should receive special treatment and be allowed to crowd out the next generation of athletes with extended eligibility. That's not right.
