Until last week, the news announced Tuesday by Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine would have been cause for celebration for Ohio State football fans: All sports in the state of Ohio – including football and other contact sports – will be allowed to proceed forward this fall.
Now, it’s just another reason for the Buckeyes and their fans to wonder why they’re no longer able to play this fall.
Thanks to Tuesday’s decision by DeWine, the Ohio high school football season will begin as scheduled next week. Middle school and youth teams in the state will be playing games this fall, too.
