Well, okay. But it is newsworthy, simply because it's led by a CU official who broke the virus-related public health order and failed to get a permit.

Athletics were exempt? What does that mean?
Probably exempt from the group of 10 or more?
I hate to say, this is too emblematic of Boulder these days. A bunch of kids going on a hike together got a lot of attention from their (very) rich neighbors/observers, and someone felt compelled to sound the alarm. The point is that this wouldn’t have been reported on in any major college football town, but it was in Boulder. That’s part of our problem
It would have been reported in any P5 town
I have to respectfully disagree with you. I know this neighborhood, they call the police if someone farts downwind from them, and it usually makes the paper.
Ames doesn't have hills, let alone mountains.
There's a whole host of places in the south this wouldn't have been reported. Down there it wouldn't be news.
Unfortunately it would have drawn attention and probably have been reported anywhere.
It was a large group of large young men, many of them Black.
In some college towns the rich old white people would think it was an antifa invasion, in a Boulder the rich old white liberals where afraid that they might move in to the neighborhood or play their music.
Neither does Lubbock, Stillwater, Norman, Manhattan, Lawerence, and Waco.

Gotta start a season to be able to make it through one though.

Not every Power 5 town. In Lincoln, NE.......the dude in the trees probably would use it as a shot at some autographs
Wut? We already know that a season will start. That doesn’t negate the need for a real camp.
No way something like this gets reported in most P5 college towns. Hell, probably wouldn’t be reported in most G5 towns.
I agree that this is a total non issue and it’s only bad optics because some holier than thou mask Karen decided it was his/her duty to report it.

Nope.
Do you know where this is? The history of the neighborhood and what happens there?

Yes. Long time Boulder resident.
Whether you agree with rules or not, you have to know them. Uninformed, silly decision.
If you were Larry Scott half this board would invite you to the Casa Bonita parking lot and the other half would show up to watch.
I agree that it was a silly decision, but the reporting and response by the city is important here. That is a small power wielding neighborhood (everyone knows each other) with long history of fabricating complaints to the city in order to keep people “out”, VERY rich, very vocal. It’s residents include the the esteemed Cindy Carlisle, Steve Pomerance and several others. So while the FB team broke a rule here, don’t take the complaint at face value, and I stand by my previous comment that the overall response/reporting by the media was atypical relative to other college towns.
I just can’t imagine taking time out of my day to take pictures of them and then to call the police and send those pictures to them. Get a life.

All good Bill.
Not sure if this was mentioned but Wilner retweeted it 
Teams are still able to practice and workout though right? All that matters is getting in the necessary training, lifting and practices. It does sound strange that they would word it “before January 1st”
Bingo on the 2nd tweet below
Clear and concise plan to return from the beginning, amiright, hawg1?
