@PeteThamel

Just got a text from a Big Ten spokesman. "No vote has been held by our presidents and chancellors." Hence, the Big Ten watch continues.

Someone is lying.

Did the Big Ten not vote 12-2 to cancel? Or did someone lie?

Was it a plot to test the reaction from the mob?

They are crawfishing. Probably thought the other conf would fall in line.

If no vote yet, power move? Just to see what the other conferences would say/do?

They didn’t vote, they just took a poll.

It may have been a trial balloon but I think they did a lot of damage to themselves in the process.

Their own teams are PISSED over this.

While there is a stalemate the players and coaches better start getting # trending and voicing their opinion ASAP. Put pressure on the admins

Big 10 could be back to the Big 8 before the end of the week.

They absolutely cancelled, and then when they saw the poor black players they pretend to care about were pissed at them, they are pivoting now

Out of all the crazy 2020 things, where would you rank "Ohio State wins the Big 12" on the list?

Yep

Pretty standard look to have rich white liberals telling poor black people what is and isnt good for them


But now its actually being reported on so the blowback has been palpable

The backtracking begins

They were hoping to start the wild fire that made everyone quit. SEC/ACC didn’t flinch, and now they could be crawfishing

I honestly wouldn’t have thought that one.

It’s like the Arizona Cardinals winning the Super Bowl or the Sacramento Kings winning the NBA title.

Oh it fricking happened already. They just expected to get praised and cheered for it instead people wanting to tar, feather, and castrate them.

Multiple people were claiming they were told by sources there was a vote.
