The Big Ten Conference has announced it will extend the suspension of organized team activities through June 1 and re-evaluate then.
The conference previously announced a moratorium on all on- and off-campus recruiting activities. No date for that to end has been set.
The Big Ten says it is continuing to consult with medical experts and school leaders to determine appropriate steps for dealing with the coronavirus pandemic.
University of Iowa President Bruce Harreld said during a regents meeting last week it was hoped preparations for the 2020 football season could begin June 1.
