Here's a really good story from SI: https://www.si.com/college/2020/05/18/college-football-coronavirus-campus-preparations

After the NCAA's call on Wednesday which could result in them either lifting the ban on campus activities, extend it or do nothing, the SEC will have a similar call on Friday. The SEC is expected to do something unanimously on when to bring athletes (football and basketball) so they won't leave out certain programs. Whether the ban is lifted at the beginning of June or mid-June, we don't know but there's plenty of talk of bringing players back in groups instead of all at once. Arkansas already has i'd estimate about 50 athletes back in Fayetteville doing their own thing.

After bringing kids back, things will still look dramatically different. There won't be full-team workouts or meetings, everything will be done in smaller groups. But it's a start.
