If you don't believe they will, then you don't understand the disease.


You can't say that with any more certainty

Most data I've seen for healthy 18-22 year olds suggest an IFR is less than 0.01%. With about 100 D1 teams and about 100 players per teams that is less than one player per season. Maybe a few is close enough to likely less than one.
By far the bigger problem is the old coaches and other staff, whose risk is 100x or more larger. You could work on protecting them, or you not play until there is a vaccine.
