Boise State and Louisville (and I'm sure many others) are furloughing staff (including some coaches) due to the impact of COVID-19 on their bottom lines.

Kind of sad.   Those staffers simply are not where the expenses are for a typical D1 athletic department.   
I hope school do not elect to remove athletic scholarships, but I fear that might happen.
I guess a number of coaches will get their pay reduced when they don't get their incentives for hitting attendance targets.

My guess is at least a few schools will not be able to continue operations if Zoom University becomes the 2020-2021 standard.
