per the Chicago Tribune:
Players, coaches and staff are mostly contained to their hotel rooms and arenas during road trips because of COVID-19 protocols to help mitigate exposure to and spread of the virus.
Battling boredom, figuring out logistical puzzles, enforcing mask-wearing and social distancing, rising at dawn for COVID-19 tests — despite a lack of fans at most arenas, road games never have felt like more of a disadvantage than this college basketball season.
“It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever had to deal with,” Minnesota coach Richard Pitino said. “There’s nothing even a little bit normal to what it is we’re doing right now. I’m appreciative to play the games, but the road has been really unique.”
