Posted Jun 28, 2020
The COVID-19 pandemic has created massive uncertainty throughout the sports world. Friday brought some clarity for Morehouse College. The school announced that its two fall sports -- football and cross country -- will not field teams during the fall semester. The news that the Maroon Tigers will not play in 2020 is another sign that college football could be in jeopardy.
