Well sports fans... it's officially official.  :(

Case Western Reserve has bowed out for 2020 football season:

I wonder what the PAC thinks about this since they voted "unanimously"  for a different outcome?

All you Case Western fans -

Sorry to hear your football season has been cancelled! I will always be a fan like I have been in the past. (Almost went to school there).
Take solace in the fact that CWRU is an academically elite school. That probably doesn't ease the pain of a lost season. You'll be back!
Go Spartans! 🏈 🎓  ;D
I'm old! I get mixed up and I forget things! Go Everybody! 🏈 ☠

CWRU and CMU are affiliates for football only. But perhaps PAC will rethink.

I assume they took part in the PAC discussions since football was part of the discussion. There is also specific mention of  a 9 game conference only football schedule. I need to read the UAA summary again to be sure, but I think it only covers league games. If individual schools want to schedule non conference  events that is their call, so long as minimal travel is required.

Perhaps the PAC will reconsider if things change from where they were when the initial decision  was  made which, based on recent news, is entirely possible.

The PAC statement was from the end of May right? 5 or 6 weeks has been an eternity for this situation. Of course, there is still 5 or 6 weeks until athletes report also, so another eternity where things can change again.

The PAC's announcement was just the other day. However, CMU and CWRU have just one sport in the PAC -- if the UAA is abandoning conference schedules (and that's understandable given the geographic distances) then those schools have to make the best decision for their entire fall schedule.

Huh. Must have read it wrong or just not paid attention. Thanks!

This is the one I'm thinking of:

Yeah. That's it. I read it wrong. The date of the D3 announcements about qualifying games got stuck in my head I think. Wasn't that end of May? Or maybe I'm remembering it all wrong and should just shut up... it's all possible these days.

The PAC Presidents Council meetings, where the decisions were made, were held in June.
Been wrong before.  Will be wrong again.
