NORMAL — Illinois State is formulating plans to bring back its football and men's and women's basketball players to campus this summer — on a voluntary basis — for workouts.
When that happens, said ISU athletic director Larry Lyons, is still to be determined. It figures to be at least a couple weeks away as schools throughout the country try to adjust to a new order because of the COVID-19 pandemic that shut down college sports in the spring.
"We're working through what our plans would be in our areas that would be directly impacted by the student-athletes or areas that impact the student-athletes — student center, athletic training, strength and conditioning, equipment room," said Lyons.
