2020 Football and a Very Relevant Mention of the DP

Interesting article. If some college football goes ahead, and some doesn't, are athletes going to try to leave a school that isn't playing for a comparable one that is? The article asserts that this is why the B1G's announcement was ready, then got delayed yesterday, and it's worth thinking about (but the counter is that the rules don't allow for movement this quickly and randomly; sure, Tua got a waiver, but it took a long time; the NCAA also ordered schools to honor scholarships of players who choose to opt out this year, so will it really also tell those schools they have to let the players leave?).

One thing is for sure, a lot of lawyers are going to make a lot of money on this goat rope. Players suing if they can't transfer. Will NFL open up supplemental draft to seniors who can't play this fall? I'm sure there are players in both PAC and B1G that some NFL teams would love right now and if not, will that lead to lawsuits What if OSU, NE, and/or UM want to go rogue and play football? Can conference stop them? Its going to be interesting.
