On Tuesday, we will get some big news.
Are we talking about the election? No. We’re talking about Wisconsin coach Paul Chryst. The school released an update on Chryst’s condition as he quarantines after being diagnosed with COVID-19.
Earliest Wisconsin coach Paul Chryst may return to work, should he remain symptom-free, is Thursday, Nov. 5. The school will provide its next update on COVID situation on Tuesday

Just to be clear: Chryst isn’t returning to work on Tuesday. We are just getting an update on Tuesday whether he can return to work on Thursday. Nothing confusing about that.
The Badgers are off this week due to their surge in cases that included Chryst. The number has jumped to 22 inside the program. Besides Chryst, starting quarterback Graham Mertz is also in mandatory quarantine.
Not having your starting quarterback or head coach would be tough in any situation. Especially in 2020. The Badger faithful are surely holding their breath hoping that Chryst and others fight through the virus and are back on the field soon.
