NCAA Top Doctor Brian Hainline Not Optimistic About College Sports Returning

The NCAA’s chief medical officer, Brian Hainline, discussed the likelihood of college sports playing in the fall in a new interview – and he was not optimistic. Hainline specifically cited issues with testing as the main obstacle to seeing college sports in the fall. “Right now, if testing in the U.S. stays the way it is, there’s no way we can go forward with sports,” Hainline told CNN. “The pathway to play sports is so exceedingly narrow right now. Everything would have to line up perfectly.”

Testing waits in the U.S. remain very long and results are not coming back fast enough. These statements come as a response to the recent movement from some players and conferences to play college football in the fall. Most notably the ACC, SEC and BIG 10 have stated their intentions to pay inter-conference games this fall. And many college football players, most notably Clemson star quarterback Trevor Lawrence, have taken to Twitter to express their desire to play football in recent days.
