Eight UCLA Bruins football players reportedly tested positive for COVID-19.

Eric Sondheimer of the Los Angeles Times reported L.A. County Health Director Barbara Ferrer revealed as much Wednesday.

This comes with uncertainty looming about whether there will be a 2020 college football season at all. Ryan Kartje of the Los Angeles Times noted the NCAA Board of Governors ruled that the NCAA's three divisions must decide whether to hold fall championships by Aug. 21.

Division II and Division III each announced Wednesday they would not hold fall championships as originally scheduled.
