Utah State head coach Gary Andersen said his players will not be permitted to opt out of the 2020 season due to concerns regarding COVID-19.
The Aggies have not had a single player opt out ahead of their season opener on Oct. 24.
“At least in our program, we don’t have an opt-out. And it’s not an option,” Andersen said, per the Salt Lake Tribune's Julie Jag. “If you opt out, you’re not with us.”
The Mountain West previously voted to cancel the 2020 season in August, but the conference reversed its stance on Sept.
