Notable players across the country are letting their conferences know they want to play.

They are the ONLY ones who can turn this around. If the players want to play, they need to speak up, loudly and quickly. Because at the end of the day, they should be the only ones to make these decisions, and if I had to guess, 99% of them want to play,


Players who have spoken out:

Trevor Lawrence
Justin Fields
Chris Olave
Kylin Hill
Jamarr Chase
DeMarvin Leal
Kenny Pickett
Ryan Hilinski
Sean Clifford
Matt Corral
Monty Rice
Trey Sermon
Paris Johnson
KJ Henry
Sam Howell
Demetris Robertson
James Skalski
Will Fries
Noah Cain
Jake Venables
Luke Ford
Ben Brown
Ian Book
Brandon Smith
Daelin Hayes
Amari Rodgers
Jarrett Guarantano
Lorenzo Lingard
Jaiden Woodby
Master Teague
Nick Bolton
Rashad Weaver
Darien Rencher
Michael Harley Jr.
Dylan Leonarf
Deuce Hogan
Evan Conley
Jacob Copeland
Brian Maurer
Cameron Brown
Kereon Joyner
Leon O’Neal
Jafar Armstrong
Spencer Rattler
Caleb Chandler
Isaiah Spiller
Beau Corrales
Brevin Jordan
Jack Koerner
Kade Warner
Terrace Marshall
Najee Harris
John Rhys Plumlee
Bo Nix

Updating with more.

Doesn't matter. They have no power in this situation outside of threatening to sit out whenever football comes back or something along those lines.

It sucks, but that's how things work.

Well the liberal media isn’t going to let up until November, and the P5 leaders are too worried about liability.

Exactly, this isn’t a safety issue at all. It’s a liability issue.

This may not make a difference, but it’s the only hope we have.

The only good that will come of this is all the woke media members gleefully cheering every bit of negative news they could find this entire time will hopefully lose their jobs after all of this

It’s a damn shame that the virtue signaling pussies are allowed to determine what is best for others and we are forfeiting our freedom of choice.

Beautiful comment

Just beautiful

When the time comes for those Players to get larger Stipends, the Players have no power , no leverage, so what they can't go anywhere

Now that these folks want them on field to entertain them, now they want the Players empowered

Not you Plate, but we sure do have a lot of hypocritical, narrow minded folks on this Msg Board

None of this bullshite is even relevant to the players not having the power to decide if there will be a season or not. Even if they were paid extremely well, they still wouldn't have that power.

The commissioners don’t give a shite about virtue signaling. You people need to use your damn brains.

Of all the dumb things you say, this one ranks right up at the top.

Imagine being dumb enough to think that these types of people aren’t heavily swayed by optics and terrified of the mob.

Also this is coming a bit late. Probably should have started this when the Pac 12 was demanding 50% revenue instead of waiting until it got cancelled

If it’s truly about it being a liability then just make everyone sign a damn waiver. It’s not that hard
