COVID-19 troubles in Tennessee Pons and the Volunteers have paused all team activities due to COVID-related concerns, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports. Impact According to Rothstein, head coach Rick Barnes is one of the positive tests, which very much puts the Nov. 25 opener against Charlotte in question. Furthermore, scheduled games against VCU (Nov. 27) and Gonzaga (Dec. 2) may not take place at the originally-scheduled dates. Expect an official announcement from the school Tuesday, but anyone looking to deploy Pons or any other Volunteer players in fantasy lineups for the opener should have a backup plan in place.
