Dabo is a douche.

Yes, I'm biased against the tiglets. Everyone knows it.

But here are the facts. Last week the tiglets had a player with symptoms, so they tested him. It was negative so he was allowed to practice and be around the other players. He continued to have symptoms so he was tested again. Again it was negative. Finally, on Friday he was tested again and it was positive. I don't know when FSU was notified of this but it could have been Saturday morning.

FSU was concerned that there had not been time  for other players to show positive on their tests so they decided not to risk playing the game. Remember, the player who finally tested positive was in contact with the entire team and staff for 4-5 days.

The tiglets offered to test the entire team and play the game Sunday or Monday. FSU felt that it wasn't enough time to get valid test results and ensure that their players would not be infected.

Did FSU just not want to play the game? Maybe. But the tiglets are hardly blameless in this thing. And Dabo is a self-righteous douche.

FSU was notified on Friday evening that the player had tested positive and had been allowed to travel with the team.

Here is my opinion. Anyone, player or staff, who had symptoms, even if he tested negative should not have been in contact with anyone else.

Protocol says that anybody in contact for 15 total minutes during the prior 48 hours should be isolated for 14 days, no?

Depending on who the player was, that could have been quite a few players.
