Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott "believes student-athletes would be 'in a safer and healthier position' if they were back on their respective campuses this summer, rather than at home," according to Ryan Kartje of the L.A. TIMES. Scott said that a June return "would put the Pac-12 on schedule to potentially start training camp as early as late July, with 'a nice glide-path to support the start of the college football season at the end of August.'" Scott: "We've got three states in our conferences where gyms are already open and student-athletes are wanting to get back and in most cases, we feel that student-athletes will be in a safer position and a healthier position if they can have access to the world-class medical care, supervision, and support that they can get on their campuses." USC AD Mike Bohn joined Scott and the "growing chorus of administrators suggesting 'a student-athlete is safer in an intercollegiate athletics enterprise's offices, training rooms, than they are anywhere else.'" Bohn said that testing protocols for the Pac-12 and USC are "still being determined" (L.A. TIMES, 5/23).
