NCAA President Mark Emmert says that the current Coronavirus data points in the wrong direction for sports: "When we made the extremely difficult decision to cancel last spring’s championships it was because there was simply no way to conduct them safely. This document lays out the advice of health care professionals as to how to resume college sports if we can achieve an environment where COVID-19 rates are manageable. Today, sadly, the data point in the wrong direction. If there is to be college sports in the fall, we need to get a much better handle on the pandemic." In terms of immediate recommendations, the NCAA Sport Science Institute released the following guidelines: Daily self-health checks. The appropriate use of face coverings and social distancing during training, competition and outside of athletics. Testing strategies for all athletics activities, including pre-season, regular season and post-season. Testing and results within 72 hours of competition in high contact risk sports Nothing real big here, and what he's trying to say is do your part in defeating the virus and cut down on cases and stuff. Wear your mask and try to socially distance. I do think there will definitely be sports in some way, just need to make sure the virus doesn't get worse. The less cases the better of course. The basketball VP said what is going on with football doesn't affect basketball, as he said a few weeks ago that basketball is going to be played in some way, and I think that's true for football too. There will be sports. Keep doing your best on cutting down on cases as it will help things and also life. There's no need to say "well there won't be sports", we just can't let the virus get worse, we need to keep the negative tests going. Via KSR
