Kansas suspends workouts after 12 players test positive for coronavirus

The Kansas Jayhawks have suspended voluntary workouts after an increase in coronavirus cases, according to Sports Illustrated's Jenna West. 

The university suggested that all players and coaches self-quarantine for 14 days given the spike not only in the program, but the community as well.

After testing 164 student athletes, 16 people have tested positive for COVID-19 with 12 being members of the football team.

The state of Kansas reported nearly 1,500 new cases this week, and it doesn't bode well for college football.

Many Division I colleges across the nation have reported double-digit coronavirus cases, including Clemson, which has seen 37 football players test positive for COVID-19. South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster said in a Thursday news conference that if cases in his state continue to rise, then he won't be allowing college or high school football to be played this fall — putting Clemson at risk of not having a season after winning two of the past four national titles.

Schools in Arizona and California also are in jeopardy due to a spike in coronavirus cases in each state. The outbreak has even forced the Pac-12 Conference to consider options for the fall season, including a delayed start or postponing of the season until the spring.

ESPN's Paul Finebaum reported this week that there's less than a 50 percent chance we get a college football season in 2020 and that CFB as a whole is in peril.
