OSU Deputy AD Chad Weiberg on College Football: ‘Difficult to Have a Season if the University is Closed’

We had Oklahoma State deputy athletic director Chad Weiberg on our podcast on Thursday, and I asked him the same question everyone is thinking right now: Is there going to be a college football season?

I’ve become more pessimistic about this in recent days. I now think we won’t have any sports at all until there’s a vaccine (so probably beginning 2021 at the earliest?), which would completely erase a 2020 CFB season.

This is obviously a nightmare scenario (for innumerable reasons), but it’s definitely in play. Weiberg is hopeful, which aligns him with the rest of FBS athletic department leadership.
