College football coaches around the country have been calling for six weeks of practice before the start of the 2020 football season, and it's looking like they're about to get their wish.
The NCAA Division I Football Oversight Committee is expected to approve a proposal this week that will allow teams to resume required workouts in July and begin practicing six weeks before the start of the season, according to a report by Sports Illustrated's Ross Dellenger.
Per the proposed timeline, teams who begin the season on Sept. 5 – like Ohio State is scheduled to – will be allowed to begin required workouts (without football equipment) on July 13, walk-through practices on July 24 and fall camp on Aug.
