After the Southeastern Conference decided last week to move forward with a 10-game, conference-only football schedule during the coronavirus pandemic, we didn't hear much from players.
That changed Saturday, though not by the conference's doing.
The Washington Post obtained audio of a conference call conducted Wednesday among SEC administrators including Commissioner Greg Sankey, medical advisers and members of the SEC Football Student-Athlete Leadership Council, during which the players expressed concerns about the upcoming season as COVID-19 cases continue to spike throughout the country.
So far, most SEC programs have been able to avoid widespread outbreaks of the novel coronavirus within their facilities.
