On a day where we have seen legit rumors of the Big Ten cancelling their fall football season, there was some potential good news in regards to the Irish and the ACC’s.
Satterfield “The ACC is moving forward no matter what other conferences do”

Satterfield is Scott Satterfield, the head coach of the Louisville Cardinals. Yes, he might think that the ACC will continue to charge on to a season in 2020, but the reality is that it is looking more and more like a full on cancellation of the season.
The face of the ACC players, Clemson’s quarterback Trevor Lawrence, along with Ohio State’s Justin Fields expressed their willingness to get on the field this year and compete. Both of them tweeted out the #Weareunited #Wewanttoplay last evening.
Players being safe and taking all of the right precautions to try to avoid contracting covid because the season/ teammates safety is on the line. Without the season, as we’ve seen already, people will not social distance or wear masks and take the proper precautions

This all may end up being a moot point, as we all continue a wait-and-see approach to what will ultimately happen this fall. We hope there will be football, but continue to be prepared to be very lonely on Saturday’s in the coming months.
