As colleges take heat for athletes (vast majority asymptomatic) contracting COVID, public opinion seems to be that athletes are being put in needless danger just to protect the budget’s bottom lines.

Here’s a thread on why I disagree, using Northwestern as an example. Northwestern took things slow bringing their athletes back — official report day is 6/22. They’ll get tested upon arrival. But while this is a return to team activities, it’s certainly not a return to group workouts for most players.
