Notre Dame football: COVID-19 and the potential impacts on eligibility

There is a great deal of uncertainty surrounding the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. There is the uncertainty of what the final impacts will be on the health and well-being of the human race. There is uncertainty over the total economic impacts that the coronavirus shutdown could cause. The duration of how long society will need to continue to employ social distancing measures is also uncertain.

The uncertainty caused by the pandemic is also extended to the world of college football, as there is growing concern over the 2020 NCAA college football season being canceled in an effort to try to prevent the continued spread of the virus through mass gatherings such as sporting events.
