[QUOTE="flyfishingfrog, post: 2975336, member: 70903"] actually the only NCAA published guidelines are for the NCAA championships they own -not sure why our school would view their authority to include governing how we chose to operate in our own facilities. I mean all year long we have seen example after example demonstrating the decision to how a school does anything related to sports is a decision for the school to make on their own or in conjunction with the conference. So no offense to ATO meant - but I think saying we have to adhere to NCAA guidelines is kind of just throwing smoke. I didn't understand the out of state or area comment at all - we are not currently changing our policies based on where "visitors" come from for any sport. When out of state teams come to play at TCU from states with more restrictive measures - we have not adapted to be more restrictive, so what was the point? The conference is a different manner - I would guess we could buck the system if we really wanted to but I have zero belief anyone at TCU is wiling to do that. I mean we did see individual schools this year take a different approach than their overall conference dictated - but it tended to be an approach of being more conservative (i.e. not playing a sport at all when the conference was going to play or not playing OOC games even if they conference allowed). I don't recall anyone giving their conference the finger and saying they would do what they wanted regardless of conference guidelines. In the end, it is easier to change nothing at this point and I would imagine that is exactly what we will do. Lets just hope the students continue to show up at baseball games because right now they are easily over half the crowd and unlike those of us that had to buy season tickets, they don't seem to be restricting how many can attend each game.
