A Michigan Regent mentioned leaving the Big Ten in 2036 over this BS.  Just curious, are there any supporters of Big Ten Commish Pettiti's thing here?

Three things

I love how Petitti  stuck up for M* to try and clear them of their obvious rules infractions(that they deserved) heading into their hearing with the NCAA.And now they get mouthy after buying their way out "Nobody pushes around the University of Michigan -- ever." :D ya sure

And now the Weasels through him under the bus which he does deserve for covering for the blow holes in the 1st place  :celebrate:

And USC & M* are absolutely right about these Private equity Pirates crawling out from underneath a slimy pond rock. The clueless choads masquerading as University Presidents and Chancellors would get played like a cheap violin.

Guys like Warren Buffet(Berkshire Hathaway),Peter Lynch(Fidelity),John Bogle(Vanguard) and their ilk are looking at BIG Leaders in this and are like:

The Big Ten really sucks.

Holding onto the RB, screwing all of us out of numerous potential NC game matchups.
Breaking the regional aspect of the sport by adding USC and the other one.
Now this nonsense.

Can you please just stop sabotaging the sport?!?!!? I mean shit!

Most of us older guys loved the Rose Bowl and wouldn't change it, but here we are.

As for the Big Ten today? What it has done in the last 15 years is atrocious, at best.
U RAH RAH! WIS CON SIN!
