In reply to: Probably true, but there are around 10k D1 football players posted by Tex Francisco

The odds of a complication are roughly similar to the odds of complications from things like car accidents and other accidents/incidents. My view is the question will be the media coverage. If a COVID hospitalization or even death (latter unlikely with 1k cases among healthy 20 year olds) gets major media coverage much more than an average D1 player being hospitalized or worse for other things, then there will be problems.
I also keep looking at these positive test numbers as indicative that coronavirus is not unheard of among 20 year olds in their regular life, since at least some of these cases were present before they ever got to campus.

Thet fact all this is coming out

Tells me it is way more prevalent and that young people general fight it off pretty easy compared to over 65 year olds.

Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth

so said Mike Tyson. I'd imagine everything will be fine until the first reported hospitalization. If it's a "name" player on a "name" program, grab your butts.
