I thought it was dumb for HS football but Michigan Governor’s order requires masks for college football in Michigan, for now.
Unbelievable!!
From ESPN:
Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's office said Thursday her requirement that athletes wear masks applies to Big Ten football in Michigan, but a face shield will suffice for players and the administration is open to potentially changing the order.
Her office said it will talk to the conference about the mandate, which covers organized sports in which athletes cannot keep distance "except for occasional and fleeting moments.''
The state measure exempts professional sports and amateur sports like tennis, golf, cross country, baseball and softball.
