'We'll start with the employees of this company, the ones that come in this building. Then we'll bring the players in, and slowly but surely we'll test them all in,' Oklahoma State University football coach Mike Gundy said about bringing the football program back up during the coronavirus.
Oklahoma State University football coach Mike Gundy said Tuesday he believes his players, coaches and staff can return to the Stillwater campus by May 1. He said healthy, young athletes and testing of coronavirus among everyone involved with the football program are paramount in getting the program back on its feet during the current coronavirus pandemic.
"How fast that can happen based on the tests that are available, I can't say right now, but that's the plan," Gundy said in this ESPN."We have to have a plan, and the plan right now is for them to start on May 1. It might get backed up two weeks. I don't know, I can't make that call, but if it does, we'll start with the employees of this company, the ones that come in this building.
Gundy said his staff often treats players and coaches with the flu, and those people get quarantined until they are well. He said the same could be done for people who have contacted coronavirus. "From what I read, the healthy people can fight this, the antibodies make it better. They're doing some blood transplants now with the people that have already gotten the disease, that have gotten over it that have the antibodies that can fight it. There's a lot of people who can figure this out. May 1's our goal. Don't know if it will happen. Players will come in after that.
