He'll be fine, he is too young and too healthy and there is very risk of him suffering anything but an inconvenience over this.  While a senior he lead his team to a good showing in the state tournament with some sort of crazy flu this shouldn't be an issue for him.  He's got a cellphone and access to zoom, teams, and many other applications to allow him to continue working to the extent possible.

Glad to hear Bryan's case doesn't appear to be serious. That's most important here by a longshot.

For the team, obviously his absence is disruptive and far from ideal, but such is 2020. Nice opportunity for Brendan to run the show for the first couple games. I think he has head coaching aspirations down the road, so it'll be a good test for him and the rest of the coaching staff without Bryan.

Speaking of the coaching staff, did they not replace Moses as director of basketball ops?

Looks like they added Director of Operations to Conner Wheeler's responsibilities.   Combining the  Director of Operations and Player Development may have been part of the cost saving initiative to lower the Men's Basketball operating budget due to COVID induced Athletic Department budget restraints.  This move would make sense fiscally without having to layoff current Staff.

Yes, it states clearly that he is ASYMPTOMATIC (defn: showing NO SIGNS OF SYMPTOMS).  I'll leave it at that.

@insaluki

i am halfway between just totally lock it down and end it or just let it run through. Leaning towards the latter
