The NCAA Division I Council voted Wednesday to allow voluntary workouts by football and basketball players as of June 1.

NCAA officials said health and safety protocols mandated by their schools or local health officials because of the pandemic will have to be followed. Meanwhile, Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith said he believes the school's football team could safely play home games with 20,000 to 30,000 fans in its 105,000-seat stadium.
