Syracuse football has five road contests in its 2020 campaign, and the NY governor’s travel quarantine is something that the Orange will have to sort out.

Syracuse football is asking for an exemption to the travel quarantine issued by New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo for student-athletes and team staff members, according to a report.

Nate Mink of Syracuse.com writes in an article that ‘Cuse Athletics Director John Wildhack is hopeful that the Orange may “piggyback” off of language in Cuomo’s order for professional sports so that SU players and staff personnel don’t have to quarantine for two weeks when they return to New York after traveling to other states for games.
