The presidents and chancellors of the 14 universities in the Southeastern Conference will vote on whether or not to lift the league-wide ban on team activities one week from today, but KSR is hearing there is some dissent among SEC athletic directors on when players should return to campus to begin training for football season.
Sources tell KSR that SEC athletic directors met virtually on Wednesday to discuss lifting restrictions on team activities, practices, and other organized gatherings, which currently run through May 31. The vast majority of the athletic directors supported allowing players to return to campuses on June 1; however, one athletic director spoke out against it, arguing that the ban should be in place indefinitely: Tennessee’s Phil Fulmer.
