Without mentioning the name of the school because it hasn’t been released yet, I’ve been told by multiple members of the team that their Coach resigned today without giving any reasoning.. He broke the news to the team over zoom interesting times for coaches to be stepping away.

Well, that pretty much narrows it to the one college shifting from Commonwealth to Freedom for the 2021 season. Anyway, I hope these young men get a decent leader. Every student athlete has been through enough in the last 10 or so months.

There are 2 new schools in freedom since 2019-20.

Either way your looking at a school who just hired the alleged coach that left or the "front runner" of the conference losing its veteran coach

No fans at any MAC athletic competition for now. I’m good with a video feed over; no games, or in person but not able to eat/drink, use the bathroom, sit with friends etc.

Follow the rules. Don’t screw this up. We’ve waited long enough. Enjoy the available feeds.

“ MAC Statement on Spectators:

As the Middle Atlantic Conference (MAC) prepares to begin spring competition, conference leadership believes that protecting the health and safety of the student-athletes and the greater campus communities must take priority. The MAC has reaffirmed a previous decision that spectators will not be permitted at any athletics events until further notice. No individuals outside of those deemed necessary to conduct the event may attend, including students, faculty or staff. This policy covers all MAC sports.

The MAC leadership will continue to evaluate circumstances as the spring semester progresses and will provide updates regarding spectator attendance if and when that information becomes available.”
