Welcome to a Wednesday edition of Gators News, with the Major League Baseball season set to get started tomorrow and while the National Basketball Association plays out a few exhibition games before its season restart officially kicks off on July 30.
The biggest news in the college athletics world is football, or more specifically, whether or not there will be college football come this fall. Mark Emmert over at our parent site USA TODAY discusses how a November without college football would affect the national elections in his article published this morning while Chris Bumbaca took a look at how the world of sports betting will have to conform to the “new normal” in light of all of the changes that have occurred due to the novel coronavirus outbreak. David M. Hale at ESPN also imagines a world where has relegation and promotion, a la the English Premier League and other tiered leagues.
Here is the latest news from the Gator Nation.
