Auburn and Tennessee, two teams on Kentucky’s football schedule, are currently dealing with COVID-19 outbreaks.
Auburn cancelled two practices and Saturday’s scrimmage due to the virus. Tennessee had to cancel a practice last week.
Kentucky head coach Mark Stoops was asked to give his thoughts on other teams dealing with COVID-19 right now:
“You know it’s not my concern because I can’t control that,” said Stoops. “I certainly hope that we are all staying as safe as possible and keeping things under control because you always worry about that.”
“You feel like if it gets out of control at any other place, it can affect you. It can affect us and our players. For us, our focus is keeping ourselves as safe as possible and doing the things we can do that controls our environment. We are far from perfect, but our guys are doing a really good job and for us right now, we have it as under control as you can.”
