If you thought that with the Big Ten planning a winter season after commissioner Kevin Warren released a statement last week saying the fall season wouldn’t be revisited would cause those in uproar to go quietly into the night, think again.
On Wednesday morning, parents from Michigan, Ohio State, Nebraska and Penn State put out an open letter addressed to Warren under the moniker ‘B1G Parents United’ — echoing the Big Ten United and We Are United campaigns that preceded the season postponement.
While before there were groups of parents from individual schools who had put out letters or even protested at Big Ten headquarters in Rosemont (IL), this is the first time they’ve all come together under one banner. And though earlier iterations have called for a reinstatement of the fall season, this time around, that’s not the case. Big Ten Parents United, as it stands, is asking for more transparency, clarity as well as input into processes such as these.

Whether or not anything amounts from this in the future, it remains to be seen. But the parents continue to be vigilant on behalf of their sons.
