Not playing is the safe thing to do because any risks, perceived risks, or actual COVID cases (unknown long term health effects, hospitalizations, or deaths) are cause for lawsuits. I wish there was a way to guarantee player safety and legally protect the schools by having players sign waivers, but just don't see it happening. I wish the AAC were amongst the few schools playing football this Fall along with the SEC, and possibly ACC and Big 12. A four conference race to the finish with conference championship games and each conference send thier top two teams to an eight game National Playoff bubble on an island in the Carribean. As much as I would've loved to see this year's special team, I want the pandemic to be over so we can go back to normal everyday acceptible risks in life.
Politics aside, once something reaches pandemic declaration, the acceptible risks go down until it is no longer a pandemic. Pandemics come and go. Pandemics do end. COVID will end too, just not in time for 2020.
