This week's initial College Football Playoff rankings, where Michigan was ranked third, stoked coaches’ outrage over the inaction. One of the people who spoke to AP was also involved in that meeting, and said Petitti told the ADs he planned to meet with conference presidents and Michigan officials and gather as much as information as possible.
“I think a lot of people's lives, livelihoods, jobs, their seasons, players, players' health, all kinds of things, have been impacted by this,” Rhule said. Multiple Big Ten schools have found tickets purchased in Stalions' name to their games over the last three seasons. A person with knowledge of the situation told AP tickets to the last two Southeastern Conference championship games were also purchased in Stalions' name.
What kind of penalties the Big Ten could hand down are unclear. Big Ten bylaws do provide the commissioner more leeway to act quickly on matters of sportsmanship and competitive integrity.
