Coaches and players want to play.

University presidents and the NCAA want to avoid liability.

Fans want to watch the games.

So long as the Universities do the following, I think they should all play:
1. Agree to cover any and all medical costs for athletes if they get Covid.
2. Get liability waivers from players acknowledging they accept the risks and will not sue schools, coaches, and faculty/administration.
3. Offer the option to remain on scholarship if the players decline to play, **BUT** players will then be required to maintain a higher GPA than otherwise needed (as the scholarship becomes an academic one if they are not engaged in athletics).

As far as the stadium not becoming one giant petri dish... I don't know. Maybe have mandatory mask usage within the stadium? I'd say simply ask people, but I watch people look at a sign that says, "Please wear a mask" with as much disdain as a sign that says, "I banged your mom."
