A group of athletic directors reportedly urged the Big Ten Conference to take disciplinary action against the Michigan football due to the program's ongoing sign-stealing scandal.
Big Ten Commissioner Tony Petitti hosted a conference call with athletic directors from across the conference on Thursday to discuss Michigan football's alleged sign-stealing operation, according to a report from ESPN. Michigan athletic director Warde Manuel reportedly did not participate in the video. Sources told ESPN that the various athletic department leaders voiced their support for the conference taking action in regard to the sign-stealing scandal.
Additionally, Petitti is believed to have met with the NCAA to discuss the alleged operation. However, it remains unclear whether college football's governing body will share information with Petitti and the Big Ten as it becomes available during its investigation. Petitti also expressed his desire to discuss the issue with presidents of schools from across the Big Ten, per ESPN. He also appears to want to learn more from Michigan officials and possibly have further discussion with the NCAA.
The athletic directors had a clear message -- we believe the conference needs to step up,' a source familiar with the context of the call told ESPN. Some have raised questions about whether the Big Ten can launch its own investigation into Michigan's potential violations of the conference's sportsmanship policy.
