This crazy past week or so of college football news is going to be unparalleled for quite some time. From conferences canceling/postponing fall football, to others being on the fence, to still some going all out to provide competitive environments in the fall for their athletes, it’s been a zany circus unlike any we’ve seen for quite some time — maybe ever.
The Big Ten set it all off by being the first Power Five conference to postpone college football in the fall, and it’s all been a whirling derby of chaos since then.
Nebraska and Ohio State both entertained ideas of trying to go against the Big Ten and play somewhere in the fall, but eventually pulled back and released statements supporting Kevin Warren’s Big Ten ideals.
But it didn’t stop there. In fact, as the college football world turns, so too do the days of our lives. Several parents of football players at Big Ten schools are starting to send mail to Kevin Warren and the Big Ten offices calling for better communication, transparency, and even the reversal of the decision to not play in the fall.
We’ve grabbed all the letters from Ohio State, Iowa, Penn State, and Nebraska (pending) football players’ parents for you in one place. Enjoy the reading.
