Ohio State football parents continue to protest

Parents of Ohio State football players are now at the Big Ten headquarters in Chicago protesting the cancelation of the Fall football season.

The Big Ten has been the center of the college football universe for the last couple of weeks. It’s mainly because of the lack of transparency with Kevin Warren and his decision to cancel the football season. Instead of it blowing over, it’s only getting worse.

Ohio State football players have been among the loudest groups voicing their displeasure. Now their parents are getting involved too. Several parents of football players, including Shaun Wade’s dad and Sevyn Banks’ mother, have descended on the Big Ten headquarters.

They are joined with parents from other teams within the conference as well. They want to make sure that their voices are heard. I’m not sure that anyone expects any significant change from these protests, as Warren has already said that the decision to cancel Fall sports won’t be revisited.

But maybe this will spur some of the teams in the Big Ten to do their own thing. There have been rumors about Ohio State trying to organize a six-team round-robin. Maybe the protests from the parents give the universities the extra shove that they need to go through with this.

At the very least, the parents are showing how much they care about their son’s future. They are doing their best to make sure that their sons will have a voice in a decision made that affects their future so greatly next time, all though hopefully there is no next time to something like this.

As of yet, the Big Ten has had no response to the parents’ protest. It would be shocking to me if there was considering their lack of silence on this matter since the decision was made. But if there is, we will keep you up to date on it!
