    I wonder how much of a threat to them Boston College will be? They are 4-2, and one of their losses was a good close one to UNC, but that might have been their best played game of the year actually. Their other loss was a blowout to Virginia Tech, and two of their wins were hard-fought squeakers over Pittsburgh (sucks) and Texas State (utterly awful).

    Will he be available for Notre Dame?

    ESPN saying his availability for that game is questionable.

    Does he come back at all, seriously why risk the literally hundreds of millions of dollars? He already has an NC, he has nothing to prove so why put stress on his lungs or body coming back quickly to play college football.

    My whole family of 7 has had it this past week. Went down about like everyone else we know whose had it....no big deal. I was out cutting wood and working on the land yesterday after a couple days of fever and body aches and even went to play tennis near the middle of it, my youngest has been cranky at night and now getting back to normal, my wife had two miserable days and then...back at it, move on...just a little lethargic. Out of the other kiddos one said he was achy and laid on the couch for about an hour 1 day before back on the go.
    The fact that the media keeps making a big deal over whose testing positive -other than purely from an availability standpoint
    ...especially young healthy athletes...is absurd. And what? Nothing. Too bad for him to miss a couple games while it seemed he was really hitting his stride, and too bad the fellas will miss him. Hope it doesnt affect his Heisman run. Other than that....this is not news. The 76 year old couple (who both have had it the last week and are fine) where my son goes for piano would say the same.
    A very large percentage of the players, or even a majority, perhaps, have most likely had it at this point....and things keep humming along. To me it is only news from a will this affect any wins/losses or season goals standpoint. If he misses ND (which wouldn't be because of health reasons but due to protocols)..it is indeed more interesting news at that point. Mainly because it will be embarrassing for ND when Clemson beats them without him lol.
    This could get interesting as we get closer to end of season and playoffs for some teams. At least Clemson wont have to worry about 16 now down the stretch.

    If worried about lungs take the hydroxychloroquine but if there are no other medical issues he’ll get over it quickly I predict. And no I’m no doctor just another know-it-all who has been through it at the ripe old age of 73. I can tell you it wasn’t that easy for me but fatigue was the biggest issue and it lasted for awhile.

    and unfortunately for him, with the NFL salary cap going down for 2021 his first contract will be significantly lower than Burrows is this season.

    No chance he does anything except go back to his team the second he can. He’s a leader, a competitor. If he was it in for NFL money he’d have sat out this year.

    Lawrence is one of the best leaders I’ve seen in football for years. Against Miami he ran in for a TD, took a late hit, spiked the ball in anger and spite, took a flag, then was apologizing for it when he got to the sidelines. No way he leaves this team hanging after getting a case of the aches.
