There is risk involved in getting on a plane and driving across town. What is the risk/reward trade off here? Do we ban people from driving cars since 30K die in auto accidents every year? 20 year old athletes are not high risk people.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

I'd say we boycott everything from China, but that would be pretty much everything. How hard is it to not eat bats!!!!

Players would still have had to travel - commercial flights and such. This sucks.
That's still a very minimal risk and less risk to them than all the clubbing they're gonna do with their free time.

Putting student athletes at potential risk of flying cross country, being in airports, all thing the could expose them to the virus needlessly. Let a few athletes get sick or maybe even worse because we wanted to watch a game and suits would bankrupt all of college sports.
Use a bus and play regionally. And you know, use a bus. And you know, use the school plane/charter.
