The Big Ten suspended organized athletic team activities in March at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The conference also said in a release that the moratorium on recruiting activities, both on and off campus, will continue.
Michigan State University moved students to online classes on March 11 and extended the period of online only classes through at least the end of the first summer session. A decision has yet to be made on whether or not the second summer session, which begins June 29, will be online only or if students will be allowed to return to campus by then. Students returning to campus is speculated as a major milestone in the ability for athletics–notably football–to return.
