UCF athletics director Danny White optimistic college football season will start on time

White is optimistic that as the country continues to deal with the coronavirus pandemic, there have been great strides that lead him to believe the Knights could kick off the regular season at home against North Carolina on Sept. 4 with fans in the stands.

“Will everybody be able to play at the start of the season? I don’t know that, but it certainly seems like the state of Florida is in good shape right now from everything I’m reading and hearing. Central Florida is in really good shape," White said during an interview with the Orlando Sentinel Thursday.
