Honestly if I'm an athlete or really anyone walking around this planet the best news I could get on this is that I got a positive test without experiencing symptoms.
Ideally the entire team would have tested positive today with none of them having symptoms. Go sit home for two weeks, and let's roll come August.
On the face of it I would normally agree wholeheartedly. But inherent in your assertion is the assumption that contraction and recovery confers immunity for some extended period of time. I believe this is not yet known unless there has been a study conclusion that I have missed.
Further as I alluded to in response to roadwarrior it’s one thing for superior athletes in the prime of their condition to get an illness but quite another for one of the staff, and potentially their families. Sooner or later someone is going to end up in the hospital. Everything is going to hit a hard stop on that day IMHO.

Don't believe everything you think.
I have been thinking the same thing for the last 3 weeks. The very faint silver lining for NDSU is that if there are no games this year, people should be really ready to fill the Fargodome to the max in 2021, especially with a good looking game against Albany in the dome.
There is also anecdotal evidence that you can get COVID-19 more than once and the second time can be worse.

We just don't know that much yet.
