While some states have delayed the high school football season to 2021 because of coronavirus-related concerns, more than 30 states, including Idaho, opened this fall playing football. SBLive asked a panel of three coaches and three players from across the state of Idaho in-depth questions about how COVID-19 has impacted their football seasons. The SBLive Washington crew — Andy Buhler, Todd Milles and Dan Dickau — dissect those conversations and look at a recent study from the University of Wisconsin that concluded participation in high school sports does not increase the risk of COVID-19 spread.
