It's a head-scratcher. I could see this being interpreted in two very different ways.
The NCAA could be telling D3 ADs to go ahead and plan for a spring season without worrying about eligibility issues for this year’s players in the event that the season gets cut short. And/or they could plan a shortened "safer" schedule with less travel, knowing that the kids won't burn a year of eligibly.
Conversely, they could be saying go ahead and cancel your entire spring because none of your players are going to lose any eligibility.
I hope it's the former.
