"I think coaches would prefer Thanksgiving nonconference and play them in pods. Three games in a weekend in one location. And then January, February conference play is our choice. But whatever we have to do to have a season then we will be for." https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/the-biggest-question-facing-college-basketball-heading-into-september-will-nonconference-games-be-doable/ https://twitter.com/JonRothstein/status/1296432887403880448
A significant issue ignored so far that can’t be avoided—coaches agree—is IF you are able to start CBB in late Nov. and try to play straight until January, you can’t resist players from leaving for a short Christmas break to see family. Upon return, quarantine protocol kicks in.
My guess: if CBB is fortunate enough to see testing affordability+reliability improve enough by T'giving to have games by then, and if we did bubbles or pods, the reality is that window would close 2-4 days before Christmas, not go straight through for six weeks into early Jan.
