There may not be a college football season, or the college football season may be delayed significantly. Reports are rampant that conference leaders are coming together and preparing to postpone fall sports at universities across the country, something that will bum a whole bunch out of people out, to put it mildly.
The implications of that are incredibly vast. The NCAA and universities have been printing money thanks to college football for many decades, now setting those entities up for crushing losses with a lost or postponed season. Players counting on these seasons to help set up their professional futures may have nothing to point to heading into next spring’s NFL Draft, and the impact on college towns, their establishments, and their employees are going to be heavy and hurt a lot.
