re: Sounds like the season is on life support

Even if the season is canceled the players are not getting sent home. They will remain on campus, train, be housed, be fed, and continue with classes to retain their scholarship.

No one is sending them packing back home

Exactly. Not discrediting Lawrence's point because it does have merit. It just ignores the fact that without football, the players should still be on campus and will still have access to the medical staffs.

What about long term side affects from playing football, or other sports. Why are we worried about Covid, but these are injuries are OK. Its all bull crap.

I think to this point, the difference is injuries are a known risk, while long term health impacts from Covid are still not entirely known. Are schools ready to commit long term medical care for players that contract it? Or will they argue there's not way to prove the player contracted it through athletic activities? My guess is the latter.
