Loss of spring impacts not only Notre Dame’s freshmen, but all freshmen

In a sport rife with conspiracy theories, vague and not-so-vague references to opponents’ questionable recruiting tactics, and a general lack of consistent guidance given the absence of a unilateral governing body, there are two reasons why college football coaches have not filled their time and ours with complaints about what competitors are up to in terms of training and recruiting.

First off, there are obviously far greater concerns at hand right now than what hardware Alabama sent its roster, foremost if there will be a football season at all.

Secondly, everyone is in the same boat. The greatest advantage anyone could unreasonably gripe about would be Clemson’s scheduling allowing for nine spring practices before the coronavirus pandemic halted all semblances of sports.
