Stories From Around Sports Illustrated: A week we'll never forget

These are the best stories from the past week published by college sites and beat writers.

It has been a tough week for all of us, no doubt about it. We are in no way victims but you can imagine it can be tough to write about something as trivial as sports when serious issues are at the forefront of all of our minds right now. 

But our college network at Sports Illustrated remains hard at work trying to take people's minds off the issues at hand, for those that need a break, and produced some fantastic work.

Ross Dellenger and Pat Forde continue to have the best coverage of what is happening inside athletic departments and conference commissioner's offices as they deal with the ongoing pandemic.

Team Sites

Shawn Krest of BlueDevilCountry wrote about a possibility that hasn't been thought of in 40 years, finding a Duke head men's basketball coach. Mike Krzyzewski's contract runs out in 2021 and the end could be near. 

Georgia landed JT Daniels this past week and Dawgs Daily wrote about what that means for Georgia.

If you missed it from our site earlier this week, BuffsCountry wrote about what athletes returning to CU's campus will look like.
