How is not having a season going to protect student athletes?

[Omnipoint]

Are they at a greater risk than they are today, with things open and no sports?

Every team comes into contact with about 150 of the same people, players, staff, trainers,etc. In a stringent testing environment.

I don't see the reasoning for the push back on sports unless you go back to full blown stay at home orders. If you do that, the people already suffering economically will be toast.

There will be a season. Christ, even NFL has announced that they are playing EXHIBITION games with fans, albeit likely 2 games instead if 4. Time to get on with life. And the little elementary school kiddos will be in school come Labor Day, too.
