This is the last kind of report we need to hear with games right around the corner. The last thing we need is a major college football program struggling with coronavirus.

We’re heading down the final stretch before the college football season starts. That means we need to be as safe as possible.
As I’ve said many times, isolate the player with coronavirus, keep them far away from the rest of the team and they can return once they’re healthy.

With games starting soon, the last thing we need is a major outbreak. Let’s hope Texas Tech takes care of business and gets the job done.
