The coronavirus is making it unlikely colleges and universities will be ready to compete in athletics at the same time this fall. That is what NCAA President Mark Emmert reported Friday night in an interview shown on the NCAA’s official Twitter page.
Emmert was joined in the interview with the NCAA’s chief medical officer, Dr. Brian Hainline. As reported by the Associated Press, Emmert said the goal is for every team to have an equal amount of preparation time before its season starts, and there could be some competitive inequities used by schools having varied timelines for re-opening campuses.
