I am not saying this will be an easy game, but this is ridiculous. Some way, shape or form this is related to COVID. I truly don't understand the rules. Louisville told NC State don't come for tonight, we said tomorrow is okay. NC State reported two positive tests before its scheduled game against Connecticut on Dec. 5 in Uncasville, Conn. Keatts said on Monday that he would have had “eight or nine” players available for the Louisville game, if it had been played as scheduled on Wednesday. When you look at the Louisville game, we were ready to play,” Keatts said. “I don’t have a full roster right now. I have eight or nine guys that could possibly play in a game.” “(Louisville) didn’t feel, by their medical people, that it was the right time for those guys to play on Wednesday,” Keatts said. “That’s no knock against Louisville. I’m not in here to judge them. We all have medical people and we all have trainers and you have to do the best thing for your program.” Keatts said the contact-tracing protocols have been reduced by CDC guidelines from 14 days down to seven. Any player that tests positive would have a 10-day isolation period. Keatts said he has taken a “it’s better to be safe than sorry” approach to the season. https://www.wralsportsfan.com/nc-state-men-s-basketball-looking-to-get-back-on-the-court/19430065/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papal Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 (edited) I just saw on my ESPN app that the game is listed as being on ESPN+; sorry, old news since game reported being on fox sports midwest 8 hours ago Edited December 16, 2020 by papal update of info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrjoelabs Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 I am so excited for the next 4 days. If we can knock off these 2 power 5 teams, it will mean a ton as we all know. Ford and May did a hell of a job getting this game. Minnesota didn't look too good vs Illinois. NC State hasn't played anyone, and the COVID issues so who knows.

Franchise_08 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 NC State has a familiar name on the squad. Former Billiken recruit, Thomas Allen transferred from Nebraska and now is eligible for NC State. We were in his Final 3 and he made an official visit here. Not a great career so far.
