LSU Athletics Director Scott Woodward met with the media via teleconference on Monday, touching on a number of topics as school officials monitor the spread of the coronavirus.

The NCAA suspended all on-campus sporting events until at least April 15, and also cancelled all remaining NCAA Championships for winter and spring sports.

LSU's football program had just began spring practices a week prior, but a ruling from the Southeastern Conference shut things down following the third practice for the Tigers. The remaining 12 practices will not take place, which means LSU won't have a Spring Game this season, Woodward confirmed.

Woodward added that the SEC was expected to hand down news soon of the status of spring games in the conference, hinting that there is likely no spring games that will take place in the conference this offseason. He added that there will be discussion about adding practices for teams, whether that means in the summer months or ahead of fall camp.

LSU's original spring schedule had practice dates set for April 16 and April 17 ahead of the Spring Game on April 18, which was set to be held at Southern University's campus.

It's big news for an LSU football program that is coming off a National Championship and 15-0 season and now having to replace double-digit starters.

It was the first spring practice that redshirt junior quarterback Myles Brennan was able to get all of the first-team reps, and now he and the rest of the Tigers move towards summer workouts without any spring scrimmages or remaining practices with the staff.

The original news of no spring practices until April 15 came after conferences across the country decided to cancel their basketball tournaments for safety reasons to address the coronavirus pandemic, as well as the NCAA Tournament and more.

"NCAA President Mark Emmert and the Board of Governors canceled the Division I men’s and women’s 2020 basketball tournaments, as well as all remaining winter and spring NCAA championships," NCAA media contact Stacey Osburn released in a statement. "This decision is based on the evolving COVID-19 public health threat, our ability to ensure the events do not contribute to spread of the pandemic, and the impracticality of hosting such events at any time during this academic year given ongoing decisions by other entities."

Also on Thursday, LSU officials announced classes would be cancelled next week ahead of spring break, then would pick back up with online courses only.

"In light of this development, we are moving our classes online beginning Monday, March 30, through the rest of the Spring semester," LSU Interim President Tom Galligan said in the release. "Moving in-person courses to online will allow us to help slow the spread of the virus and protect all of us, as well as our friends, family, neighbors and colleagues, from exposure to the illness.

"Classes at all LSU campuses, with the exception of LSU Health Science Centers in Shreveport and New Orleans, will be canceled the week of March 16 to allow faculty to finalize the online availability of course materials and for us to develop solutions to unique situations that will no doubt arise. Since spring break is the week of March 23, that means there will be no classes for the two-week period beginning March 16."
