The most notable change is to the cancellation policy, which now dictates that a league game missed due to COVID-related issues will be declared a forfeit loss for the team unable to compete, while its opponent, if it is able to compete, will receive a win.
Makeup contests for games missed due to COVID will not be permissible.

Agree with the policy. Last year there were some questionable cancellations from Chatt and Woffy. I hope not, but watch it affect us negatively now that the official rule is in place. That is Western’s luck. If it weren’t for bad luck, we’d have no luck at all…
if you are Westerns coach, you should hold out to Friday night at midnight before you announce that your team cannot play. That way if a team announces on Thursday that they can’t play, all we have to say is that we can play. You know the crooks at Furman, Chatt and Woffy will play it that way guaranteed. I have seen too much lowlife behavior from those crowds to know how they will behave. It is a game of chicken and we need to be better at it.

I saw Furman play the Cats 4 or 5 years ago in Cullowhee and we were going no huddle and the Furman coach had his players fake more than 40 injuries so that they could substitute. Furman’s Coach will do it again this years because his team cannot compete with a fast tempo offense like what coach Bell runs. And last year I saw Chatt and Woffy cancel games and use Covid as an excuse. These things actually happened. So these guys have proven that they will lie and cheat. The faking injury thing to slow down the tempo is against the rules and poor sportsmanship and shows the lack of character of certain coaches. He is teaching his players it is ok to lie and cheat. |

I agree 100% with the new policy but don't want to win that way....I want the games played and yes there is no doubt dirty tactics are being used by others...After saying all of that in a way Chattanooga and Wofford by canceling the games kind of put us out of our misery because we would have finished 1 - 10 instead of 1 - 8........Sorry but reality.....That page has now been turned....I want wins on the football field and to hell with forfeits...
