Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields, among others, isn't happy that the Big Ten Conference decided to cancel the 2020 college football season amid the coronavirus pandemic, and now he's trying to do something about it.

On Sunday, Fields created a petition on the website MoveOn.org, asking for signatures to get the Big Ten commissioner to reevaluate the canceling of the season.

Wonder if he regrets pretending Georgia was racist now?

He knows hes fricked and it's too late to transfer.

The Big Ten is going to cost him a few draft spots and a lot of money.

This has to hurt B1G recruiting.

What also costs him is a potential Heisman Trophy and shot at a national championship

I don’t blame him. The Big 10 looks horrible in all this.

Shut up old man. I doubt you could even tell me what the scientific method is.

No doubt. I think their biggest mistake at this point was making this decision so soon. They should have delayed the scheduled start to the end of September or early October before scrapping the whole Fall season.

I realize that the Big10 presidents are the ultimate decision-makers, but IMO Kevin Warren is not going to survive this.

His interviews on the day they announced the cancellation are cringe-worthy.

Cancellation was based on fear and emotion, not science

He needs to play this year or he may have to return for his senior year IMO. I don't believe he has enough snaps to be a 1st rounder.

They may recover for this but it will hurt them in recruiting for quite a while.

“Why go to Ohio State? They cancelled their season and fricked over a bunch of their players back in 2020.”

Imagine all of the negative recruiting impacts from this. Hardly any of the current players will want to help their schools in the recruiting process. Because you have to think the current players talk to the recruits at some point during the process.

I think even if he doesn't play, the potential risk is worth it to some team in the late 1st.
