Yes, the Clemson Tigers have about 1/3 of their team with the virus!

No hospitalizations for anyone at Clemson, which includes other sports beyond just football. About half of the cases are asymptomatic.

That’s just a brutal number. I thought things were bad when it was announced that Clemson had north of 20 cases.
Having 37 coronavirus cases on a single athletic team at Clemson is a major cause for concern. It’s a huge problem.
How does something like this even happen? Did a couple players get it and then spread it around to the rest of the locker room?
It’s reports like this one that make me very concerned about the upcoming college football season. Could Clemson even field a team right now if they had to?
Could the Tigers even safely hold a practice if they had to get it done? I’m not sure they could, and that’s a huge problem.
Hopefully, Clemson is able to figure this situation out before it gets much worse. If not, then the Tigers could be in serious trouble.
