For college sports? Leaders to grow a pair.
According to the cdc, age group 15-24 is twice as likely to die from pneumonia than covid (247 deaths to 142 deaths). College students are 13x more likely to die from alcohol than covid and more likely to die or be hospitalized in a car wreck on the way to school than from covid. According to the cdc there are 47k college football injuries annually which require medical treatment. We've had hundreds of players test positive already (before being involved in team activities mind you) with no serious complications.
The only possible argument against playing football right now is not player safety, it is the safety of others to whom the players may spread covid.

You can post stats all you want (I know that's rich coming from me), but the first time a kid actually died from it, it would be a media whirlwind. Think of how that coaching staff, AD, college, and conference would be perceived. Remember when the Maryland kid died a couple years ago? It'd be like that, but a whole lot worse. The entire country would be talking about it.
