    I can tell you with near certainty that Harvard will keep its enrollment numbers. It helps, of course, because virtually no one pays anything close to their listed tuition. That's true at most universities, including Xavier, but Harvard does more of it than most.
    Xavier always goes to the NCAA tournament...Projecting anything less than that this season feels like folly--Eamonn Brennan, ESPN (Summer Shootaround, 2012)

    That was for fall sports, not the fall semester.

    It might ultimately happen for basketball too, but that hasn't been announced yet.

    Correct. Thanks for adding “sports” as I did not. Sorry to scare anyone. Heard DePaul has decided not to play golf and some other sport I can’t remember

    It could be the first step toward the announcement that there is no bball season. That is my guess at this point, sadly.

    The Coming College-Sports Apocalypse

    Brutal economic realities are about to catch up to big-time NCAA programs.Last week, Stanford announced that the coming season — if there is a season — will be the last for eleven of the school’s sports teams: men’s and women’s fencing, field hockey, lightweight rowing, men’s rowing, co-ed and women’s sailing, squash, synchronized swimming, men’s volleyball, and wrestling.

    Those concerns have become more pressing as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, and a day of reckoning may now be coming for college sports. If Stanford, with the fourth-largest endowment in the country, cannot sustain its less-prominent sports programs, how many other colleges will end up making similar cuts? How many students will lose their athletic scholarships in the process? If, as seems likely, the answer to both questions is “many,” the NCAA landscape will soon look dramatically different, with fewer sports, fewer teams, fewer scholarships, and fewer student-athletes.

    I'm not optimistic for a basketball season. Things are getting worse, not better, with no end in sight.
