SMU needs no reminder of the turbulence that is college football scheduling amid the coronavirus. The last two weeks have afforded the athletic department a front row seat to the process.
Less than 14 days ago, on July 30, Athletic Director Rick Hart publicly expressed that SMU remained committed to playing a full schedule. At which point, SMU remained one of only six FBS schools in the country to have all of its games in 2020 intact.
“We want to play all of those games,” Hart said on SMU’s Coaches’ Corner.
