per Chip:

Athletes love competition. Playing a sport might be their only sense of normalcy right now. The idea of being sidelined for 21 days — three games in football — creates a lot of worry. Not to mention the fears and unknowns that come with contracting the virus, even if they are asymptomatic.

Everyone is making sacrifices right now. These young athletes, too.

Morgan acknowledged that his girlfriend gets tested and takes other precautions so they can see each other. After games, Morgan greets his parents from a distance because his father is still recovering after having surgery to remove a brain tumor.

Pitino calls every game played during this pandemic a "gift." Morgan says 2020 is a time to be "grateful for what you have."

They are both correct.


Go Gophers!!
