LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - California's state university system, the largest in the United States, canceled classes on Tuesday for the fall semester because of the coronavirus, while Los Angeles County said its stay-at-home order was likely to be extended by three months.

In one of the first indications the pandemic will continue to have a significant impact into autumn, the chancellor of California State University said classes at its 23 campuses would be canceled for the semester that begins in September, with instruction moved online.

"Our university, when open without restrictions and fully in person, as is the traditional norm of the past, is a place where over 500,000 people come together in close and vibrant proximity with each other on a daily basis," the chancellor, Timothy White, said in a statement.

"That approach, sadly, just isn’t in the cards now."

Will universities in other states follow suit?

The GOOD people in California need to get the hell out now and bring their Republican votes to states like Nevada, Texas, Florida, North Carolina, etc..

The BAD people in California need to stay there and reap what they sow for voting Democrat.

Negative ghost rider.

Emmert told ESPN, "but under these circumstances, now that's all been derailed by the pandemic. It won't be the conferences that can do that, either. It will be the local and state health officials that say whether or not you can open and play football with fans.

Starting to think that what we remember as ”normal” isn’t really coming back for anyone any time soon.

SEC already said they will crown their own champion if needed, NCAA doesn’t have as much power as you think

This could be as lethal as Ebola, and southern schools would still find a way to play.

They can’t afford not to.

CSU = 3 FBS schools, 0 P5 schools
UC = 2 P5 schools

This has the makings of a classic Alabama national championship. The season is canceled. A Bama fraternity gets some gear and plays a game against some boys from a correctional institute. The Bama boys win 6-0 and the Tuscaloosa Times votes Bama #1.

They can just replace the PAC-12 with the AAC.

The SEC’s TV ratings will get a nice bump when they are the only college football games you can watch.

Assuming they do their own thing.
