All of that is great for when they contract the virus. It doesn't change that they are more likely to contract it on campus as well.
You can argue they are safer, though

That's unclear, especially if the student bodies as a whole do not physically return. Many players come from poor communities which either do not care nor can afford to take many precautions. There will be tons of grouping in these communities, and poorer households typically have more people living in each house closely grouped. On an isolated campus with medical care and guidance, it's far more likely things like social distancing, mask use, and early detection could be performed. Players could have separate dorms, with isolation and daily checkups.

NBA and MLB (despite the Marlins fucking things up as usual) have shown team sports can be played safely

They also get paid a shit ton of money for doing so as well.

I don't think this is the right place to debate what college athletes should or shouldn't receive but right now it's nothing compared to what professional athletes get so you really can't compare the two.

I'm claiming a national championship for OSU.

Too late, I've already done it for Clemson after you guys were first banned from the playoffs. We'll use our head-to-head series as a tie breaker.

Being put at higher risk of contracting the virus =/= safer.
20 year olds in the prime physical condition of their lives, with consistent testing, and immediate access to top notch care.

It’s all political by the Left to get Trump out of office. Watch how quick this virus goes away if Biden wins so the Left can claim they were able to get rid of it. And watch how much longer the left keeps things shut down if Trump wins...so in 2024 they can use in their campaign “Look at how awful the GOP handled the pandemic”

Ive never voted Republican in my life but the extreme left is pushing me that way
