Neither college nor NFL football:

Sucks for Juventus. Oh wait, no it doesn't. They have Dybala, Higuain, Cuadrado, Pjanic, Matuidi, Alex Sandro, and de Ligt. They'll be fine for two weeks. Especially considering they play newly promoted Crotone and Dynamo Kiev in UCL.

So far, it looks like college football is progressing just fine.

About 95% of games have gone forward as scheduled.  Of the teams involved in postponing a game, it seems that they went on to play thereafter, and that of the players affected, the vast majority have recuperated without trouble.

Nearly all players knocked out of football are the usual football injuries.

Coaches who tested positive for SARS-2:

Kevin Sumlin.  Was asymptomatic.  Is fine and back to work.
Mike Norvell.  Coached via Zoom while in quarantine.  Is fine and back to work.
Les Miles.  Feels OK.  Coaching via Zoom while in quarantine, which is soon completed.
Jason Candle.  Was asymptomatic.  Is fine and back to work.
Blake Anderson.  Is fine and back to work.

Here's hoping Saban doesn't have any trouble either.

Arlo, you need a more scientific outlook, or you get bamboozled by news.  Either deliberately by people with agendas or unintentionally because journalists are ignorant of scientific reasoning.

There are 41,000 high schools in the US -- plus however many clubs there are.  Some schools have one coach.  Lot's of schools have several coaches (football, basketball, volleyball, track, swimming, etc.).  Let's say as a conservative estimate that there are 41,000 coaches.

US has had about 220,000 deaths out of 330 million people -- that's 220,000/330,000,000, which is 0.07%.

Your reference says 30 coaches died.  30/41,000 is 0.07% -- i.e., about the same as just an average American.

You see how they have an agenda or are scientifically ignorant or both?

No, statistics and reasoning are good for making decisions, deciding if something is good to do or foolish to do.

Otherwise you start concluding things like it is better to outlaw all cars because 30 high school coaches died in car accidents.

Everyone in this thread demanding football entertainment aren't players or coaches. What's the statistical data say about that?

Car fatalities are not an infectious disease.
