Even the President wants College Football this year

[OregonDucks]

He tweeted this and then all the blue checks sports writers started rapidly tweeting how dangerous it is to play this year.

I don't see why they couldn't.

Because they have class to attend since they are students unless some have all online courses but still they can't be treated any different than a normal student.

There are two ways that a bubble could be done in college football:

1) If all Power Five schools move all their classes online...the NCAA could play their football season in a bubble during the 2020-2021 school year...as players would miss out on nothing by living in a bubble.

Right now that is not what is happening, but it is of course subject to change.

2) If Power Five schools continue to require some sort of in person instruction during the 2020-2021 school year, the NCAA could play their football season in a bubble after graduation in May through August.

Too expensive and you have to do it with the other sports other than football.

College football players are at more of a risk, if there is no season. P5 players will get more access to testing and have better healthcare than an average college student. It makes no sense to have college and no college football. Kids on these campus's aren't going to sit around and quarantine, nor will they be tested on a regular basis like a student athlete. As for the long term risk that no one knows about other than speculation, it can't be any worse than CTE or things like Inky Johnson and Chucky Mullins.

This is where I'm at. People keep acting like if there is no football then no one will catch it. I don't understand it.

Yeah, like the Prez has any power here.
