The NCAA moved one step closer to holding a 2020 football season amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
The NCAA Division I Council announced Wednesday that it approved a practice plan that begins in July.
Heather Dinich of ESPN provided details on the six-week plan, noting the goal was to provide something of a unified plan in a sport that is so regionalized. Workouts can start July 13 for teams that play their first game on Labor Day weekend, while those who play their first game Aug. 29 can start workouts July 6.
Arizona, California, Hawaii, Marshall and UCLA are among those teams with openers scheduled on Aug.
