FILE - In this Dec. 10, 2019, file photo, El Drinkwitz is introduced as the new head football coach at the University of Missouri, in Columbia, Mo. Drinkwitz has been the head coach at Missouri for just over seven months. He has yet to lead the Tigers onto the football field, much less win a game, yet his role in the community already has forced him to take some important stands. First, it was supporting his new players as they pushed for equality amid the Black Lives Matter movement. Now, it is encouraging folks to wear masks when they are out in public, which health experts insist is among the best ways to mitigate the spread of the coronavirus — even though, much like social justice, it has become a highly politicized issue.

FILE - In this Sept. 7, 2019, file photo, Indiana linebacker Thomas Allen (44) prepares to rush in on Eastern Illinois quarterback Harry Woodbery (8) during an NCAA college football game in Bloomington, Ind. Under normal circumstances, you would almost have to force Indiana linebacker Thomas Allen out of his school’s athletic facilities. His recovery plan changed dramatically when the coronavirus pandemic shut down campuses and college sports. He is among many football players across the country recovering from injuries who have limited access to top-tier equipment and one-on-one help. Some experts say those issues could lengthen recovery times and put athletes at risk of re-injury. (AP Photo/Doug McSchooler, File)
