'It was never my intention to offend anyone and I apologize,' Oklahoma State University football coach Mike Gundy said about his coronavirus remarks earlier this week.

Oklahoma State University football coach Mike Gundy earlier this week said he thought his entire program could return to the Stillwater campus by May 1. He said healthy athletes could fight the virus, and anybody sick would be quarantined as if they had the flu."I have been made aware that comments from my press conference have offended some," Gundy said in an ESPN.com."It was never my intention to offend anyone and I apologize.
