“The university is developing policies and procedures for hosting football games and other athletics events this fall pursuant to state, local and Big 12 Conference health and safety guidelines,” interim university president Jay Hartzell said on a Monday statement. “UT expects to narrow the scenarios under consideration by the first week of August.”
Hartzell continued, “We are also implementing policies and procedures to return essential coaches, athletics staff and all student-athletes to campus in the fall for practice/competition pursuant to guidance by the CDC, state and local officials and athletics and campus medical staff.
