What? It was Vandy who requested NC State be retested in order to reset the protocol timer. They are the entire reason NC State was in this position last night, it’s absolutely their fault.

We were responsible and NC State was not.
You were compliant.

If you were responsible you would have INSISTED that every player be tested to make sure the virus hadn’t spread to your team too.

Get the frick outta here with your holier-than-thou bullshite.

Schools have to protect the student athletes from Covid-19.
And yet with an “outbreak” of COVID among teams that shared locker rooms and dugouts the tournament continues rather than being shut down for precautionary measures. You know, to “protect” the student-athlete.

What a fricking joke. The tournament will continue because profit > student-athlete safety.

In one breath:

They should have banned anyone who was not vaccinated from playing.


In another:

Don't blame any of the teams, they're the victims in all this, it is what it is.


Sounds like you’re blaming teams here. Make up your mind.

No. But since Vandy gets an extra day of unwarranted rest while the other two teams must play. Vandy should have to sit one of their top pitchers Rocker are Leitner for the championship series.

Your douchebag coach requested additional testing- so there’s that.

Vandy should simply refuse to play. This is pretty cowardly on Vandys part.

It was confirmed yesterday around 12ish yesterday before the game. Check Kendall’s tweeter. You’ll find it.

I’m blaming them purely because of the Vandy Whistler.

Why would a team with 100% vaccination make this request for any reason besides pure underhanded gamesmanship?

If that’s the case then the NCAA should’ve tested Vandy’s vaccinated players as well.


All those vaccinated are not subject to testing. Those that are not must submit for covid testing. If any players test positive they will then subsequently test the vaccinated players on the team in question.

So no, they shouldn’t test Vandy if all players are vaccinated.
