Oklahoma made their official announcement that they will re-open their athletic facilities for football on July 1 per a release from the university’s athletic department.

“As we have planned for the re-opening of our facilities, the health of our student-athletes and staff has been our top priority,” Athletic Director and university vice president Joe Castiglione said in the release. “It is the principle that has guided every step of our meticulous process. At OU, we are fortunate to have one of the most respected teams of doctors and athletic trainers in the country. We have looked to them for direction in our preparation and protocols. They will continue to play an important role in the weeks leading up to our opening and beyond.

“We believe in our approach and are convinced that it best positions our student-athletes and staff for long-term success. It is with great excitement that we look forward to their return in preparation for the upcoming sports seasons.”

The Sooners are set to kick off the 2020 football season at home against Missouri State on September 5.
