Well, I told you all to get used to seeing positive tests. This is going to become the new normal for a while in the sport.
That’s just the way it’s going to be. The more players that return to campus for workouts, the more positive tests we’re going to see.

As long as programs don’t completely shut down like Houston did, then I think we’re going to be fine. However, if programs just start shutting their doors, then we’re in big trouble.
So far, we’ve seen many programs with positive tests, but that’s no reason to panic. Isolate the players, quarantine them safely, let them get healthy and keep the rest of the team safe.
If you follow that model, I find it hard to believe there’s a reason to panic.

We need football in the fall, and I’m confident we’ll have it. There might be some hiccups along the way, but overall, I think we’ll be fine.
