"At what point does your idea shift? When a player dies? Is that the point of no return? At some point, these schools are going to have stand up say 'we're going to do what's right for the student-athletes this year and we'll figure out the fiscal side later.'" -

"I leave open the opportunity to play a season [in spring of 2021], and Clemson, you could argue, has more to lose than anyone else. There's a reality that Trevor Lawrence and Travis Etienne have played their final games in Clemson uniforms." - Clemson radio host

"We have seen example after example of high-resource programs like Texas, LSU and Clemson, not being able to control this virus ... I don't know how many more examples we need to show that this is not a safe environment for athletes." -

“We are in a state of flux right now. The situation is not in control.

Those are very important interventions that will ultimately impact decisions that you make about opening anything, including sports.”

Sports cardiologist explains why athletes with COVID-19 symptoms need cardiac testing before playing games

"This particular virus causes more problems with the heart than any other virus so that's why we're being particularly careful," Dr. Phelan told CBS Sports. "That's why we're being more conservative in terms of our recommendations for return to play. We have data from hospitalized patients that show between seven and 33 percent of people will have some cardiac injury after getting COVID-19."

“The problem is that super-spread events in stadiums are the main spreader of this virus,” Engelsman told Vols Wire. “The reason is because it is the aerosols, not the normal drops of fluid, that travel 1.5 meters and drop to the ground.”

Engelsman noted that student-athletes wearing face shields around their helmet can help with ventilation and transmission.

“There needs to be better ventilation to help prevent the spread of aerosols,” he said. “Helmets should have face shields to adapt their ventilation. It is a reality.”

The ultimate ultimatum: Wear a mask or no college football

The next time you balk at wearing a mask think of what might happen if you don’t.

Think of the sad, silent Saturdays on campus, great stadiums going as unused as a vegan’s steak knife. Think of the transfer quarterback at Georgia, his hopes of one great winning season crushed. Think of the coach at Georgia Tech with no one to butter up but himself. Think of just how little you’ll have to talk about with friends and family this fall. Think of the hundreds of athletes who will have little to do but study. And of all the tuba players with no outlet for their art (if bands are still in the equation, I don’t assume anything anymore). Think of the South without college football, an apocalyptic vision to be sure.

I like this part..."But imagine your day if the job requires you to reach out to the athletics director at the University of Alabama and ask — in a roundabout way but ask nonetheless — if student-athletes at the school are intentionally trying to expose themselves to COVID-19. Then, the follow-up question: Has anyone affiliated with UA suggested that such an action might be a competitive advantage in the football season?"
