per Marcus:
Gophers athletic director Mark Coyle announced Tuesday that no athletic activities will take place on Election Day, which is Nov. 3, to encourage voting.
The university’s administration, coaches and the student-athlete advisory committee all supported giving athletes that day off and helping them register to vote,
“Our student-athletes are the leaders of tomorrow and there is no better way to make sure their voice is heard than by voting on November 3,” Coyle said in a news release.

Gophers athletes will have day off from sports Nov. 3 so they can vote
The NCAA has urged colleges to do so, and several in Big Ten have.
