Summary

It is what no one wanted to happen, but putting the NCAA Tournament on hold this year was the right call. However, did the NCAA need to completely call off the tournament, or could it have postponed it for the time being much like what the NBA is doing? Steve Helwagen joins Dave Biddle on a very fitting Friday the 13th to talk about the sports zombieland we have entered and what might happen from here. What will OSU's football players be doing with spring ball canceled? All of that and more is in store for you on a very sobering edition of the Friday 5ish.
