Let’s speculate

Plebe Summer used to have a new 2ndLt or Ensign assigned to each company. They served as an assistant Company Officer. Basically someone to help split up the time with the regular company officer assigned as we all know those are long days 7 days a week. It wasn’t that long ago they had those assigned. They didn’t really ‘train’ plebes. Just a supervisory rule. And of course lots of new officers around teaching sailing and other classes.
 
Brigade return by company for the underclassmen to clear their things out of Bancroft? Bring all the firsties back at the same time for a shortened and modified CW? No military ball, no concerts, etc. Hold as many events outdoors as possible, weather permitting? If it is inclement weather, that event is canceled with no indoor alternate? What about Herndon?
 
since we're speculating....

no way Herndon can happen - even if they were 100% virus free (and there is no practical way to ensure that by then) the optics of hundreds of shirtless, wet, slippery plebes climbing and falling (and breathing) all over each other at a time when the Navy is dealing with the outbreak all over the world? not anytime soon

maybe they do Herndon in the fall and the 4th class can enjoy being Plebes for a few add'l months
 
and the 4th class can enjoy being Plebes for a few add'l months
Oh yeah, they'll really "enjoy" THAT! 😜 😂 I actually do hope this happens, but I am guessing my plebe would rather be 100% youngster in the fall than entertain mom. (Go figure!)
