COLUMBUS – The Big Ten presidents were presented a comprehensive plan to conduct a fall football season, but a final decision is still to come.
UPDATE 9/14/20 4:24 a.m.
The conference presidents and chancellors met Sunday to hear a presentation about playing a football season, maybe as soon as late October.
A person with direct knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press that the full Council of Presidents and Chancellors heard from all the subcommittees of the conference’s Return to Competition Task Force over two and half hours.
The person said the meeting broke up without the presidents and chancellors voting and with no set plans for them to reconvene.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the Big Ten was not making its return to competition plans public.
The Big Ten presidents voted 11-3 to postpone its fall sports seasons, including football, on Aug. 11 because of concerns around the coronavirus pandemic.
