Carver literally has like 60 students (as mentioned above). How on earth does this game even get scheduled?

Coach Kerns was just trying to fill out a full schedule of games in a Covid-19 Pandemic. Carver also has games against Wofford, Troy and Ga Southern.

Re: Excited for 2020
I don't like these games either but I assume Carver gets something out of it since they didn't have to play us. I'm guessing there's some compensation that's important to their budget so they can build their program and school.

I loved the way the starters supported the walk-ons!!! This appears to be a very close-knit, unselfish team. They played Defense all night.

Re: Excited for 2020
It kinda how we used to play Athletes In Action and other preseason exhibition games. Looking at their previous schedule they've played several Sun Belt teams in the past.

Re: Excited for 2020
We want to play higher level competition to challenge us, what is wrong with giving other teams the same opportunity! I don’t understand some of you guys.
Bring Your A Game!

Re: Excited for 2020
Didn’t say it was bad to play down and with COVID we don’t have many options, but please spare the lecture. In a normal season we should never play more than 1 sub D1 game but there is nothing normal about this year. Everyone understands that. Athletes in Action would have beat those guys yesterday by 50.
