What BBN said on air. The facts are in the original report: Yahoo Sports.
Rex "Two-Point" GridleyOhio State beat Indiana Saturday, and by Sunday morning an insider named Wetzel is saying Ohio State, Michigan and Penn State should walk out of the Big Ten and go independent, like Notre Dame.
Vera BullockSo three schools leave, and then what, they just stop going to the games?
Rex "Two-Point" GridleyNo. They make their own schedule. Wetzel says it could double or triple their media money.
Rex "Two-Point" GridleyHe calls the eighteen-team Big Ten bloated and distant, and says winning it carries little value for the biggest brands.
Vera BullockBloated and distant. I'm sure the Big Ten is receiving that feedback with grace. Who do they play?
Rex "Two-Point" GridleyTen other teams, and that's the catch. Wetzel says they'd still need ten teams willing to play them.
Rex "Two-Point" GridleyAnd Notre Dame already lost USC, because USC is in the Big Ten now.
Vera BullockSo they leave a league of eighteen to go find ten friends. That's a group chat with a stadium.
Rex "Two-Point" GridleyTen teams, Vera. Ten. I couldn't get one coach to return my call, and I was on his roster.
