NCAA basketball is returning but Fresno State is still waiting

NCAA basketball is back.

The NCAA’s Division I Council voted Nov. 25 as the start date for the 2020-2021 college basketball season on Wednesday.

“The new season start date near the Thanksgiving holiday provides the optimal opportunity to successfully launch the basketball season,” said NCAA Senior Vice President of Basketball Dan Gavitt. “It is a grand compromise of sorts and a unified approach that focuses on the health and safety of student-athletes competing toward the 2021 Division I basketball championships.”

Fresno State basketball, however, still needs to hear from Fresno County and the campus on how they will handle the resumption of athletics at Fresno State.
