Almost 75% of ADs think college football will be delayed

Nearly 3/4 of FBS ADs believe football season will be delayed & 36% say it will be only conference games in @Stadium’s survey of all 130 FBS ADs. In April only 1 AD said there wouldn’t be a season. This week 8 ADs predict no season in 2020-21 academic year https://t.co/PjX4C10Vft

It is 50-100 times more contagious than the flu. That could be a factor.
