So with the team returning this week there’s one question that I’ve been thinking to my self. With the border being closed are the were the international players able to return as well

>>On-field football activities with coaches present can begin Saturday, with UConn’s first date of competition currently set for Sept. 3, while the basketball teams can start on-court coach-supervised activities July 20. The women’s basketball team is planning on convening in Storrs the last week of July.<<

Meanwhile Sweden seems to be approaching herd immunity. If you don't know Sweden took a mostly hands off let the virus do what it does approach.

Sweden's coronavirus death toll is now approaching zero, but experts are warning others not to hail it as a success

Sweden's coronavirus deaths have fallen to close to zero. It previously had one of the highest death rates in the world.

Not looking for a prolonged debate in this thread because it’ll drag it way off-topic but the article you posted states otherwise;

>>Sweden did not achieve immunity, far from it - Many in Sweden argued that its plan would allow its population to achieve "herd immunity."

But that's not even close to being achieved: Tegnell said in June that "the trends in immunity have been surprisingly slow." One study then showed 6.1% of Sweden's population had developed antibodies by late May.

It's the same for other countries, where only a small proportion of the population appear to have achieved the immunity, and experts say immunity may not even last that long.

Experts say the small build-up of immunity may be a minor factor in the fall in deaths, but not enough to dramatically drive numbers down.<<

The most interesting part of these numbers as it relates to football/sports is how dramatically things have improved in Sweden in one month. This is why there is no need to cancel any sports just yet, let this thing play out a few more weeks and hope for the best. Maybe a 9 game schedule starting in October is the way to go, that seems to be the plan for the B1G and PAC.
