Athletic director: No football season would cost UW roughly $10.5 million

LARAMIE — In two weeks, the calendar will flip to August. Yet much of college football remains in limbo.

Sure, some Football Bowl Subdivision conferences have started to take action regarding the upcoming season in response to the coronavirus pandemic. The Big Ten, the Pac-12 and the Big East have already scratched non-conference games from their teams’ schedules, but it’s not surprising that the most impactful decision — whether a season will be played at all — has yet to be made.

Not when football serves as the cash cow for many FBS athletic departments across the country.
