This is supposed to be a free country where people aren't forced to fear for their lives, especially when that fear is based on a lie. It's their choice if they want a vaccine, not yours, and not the NCAA's.

Also, four of those guys who tested positive GOT the vaccine. What did that do for them? Nothing. There's your science.

Nah! They are making an example of them because some didn’t want to take the vaccine. This is truly political hardball. Ask yourself if you really believe any of these athletes lives were in danger? These kids won’t have co-morbidities like folks over 50.

I bet you they are all feeling well and ASYMPTOMATIC.
First it was John Rahm, a guy who is winning a golf tourney by 6 shots, and as he is walking off the golf course with only 18 holes to play the next day, they tell him he can't play because of Covid. Then it was another high profile athlete named CHRIS PAUL with the Phoenix Suns who can't can't play for 10 days because of Covid. Now, the media really gets the message out to get vaccinated because look what can happen to your team in the College WS. Coincidence that all of these high profile things happened within a short time frame? Huh.

Just more government overreach trying to force everyone to get vaccinated with a still unapproved vaccine that will never eradicate this particular virus. It was the worst of time, it is the worst of times.

What if Vandy now has positive players because they played against 4 NCS players who were positive? Then what?

Also, do they test the umps too? What if one of them has it and they all are out due to contact tracing?

Yes I’m sure the likes of John Rahm and NC State will be the tipping point for the unvaccinated in this great media scare

This is political "Kabuki Theater."

Every remaining team should refuse to play and support the disqualified team.

This is one big political scam.

I would refuse to play as an individual and protest this shite.

Winning any of this, at this point, has become effectively meaningless.

Yep, the NCAA has ruined the experience for all of the teams, their families and friends, and fans of the game. I truly feel bad for the teams, especially NC State, who were subjected to this.

You want science: you can still get and transmit COVID even if you have the vaccine.

I remember what happened during the H1N1 pandemic of 2009: LSU won the CWS. The sports world was not affected one bit that fall, winter, and following spring. They better get this mess straight before football season, or SEC fans may riot harder than Antifa.
