#B1G presidents and chancellors voted 11-3 to postpone the fall season, the league confirms in a brief responding to #Nebraska players' lawsuit. Brief also outlines that decision based on multiple medical factors applying to all 14 schools. Two groups of experts advised league.
League sources tell ESPN that #Nebraska, #OhioState and #Iowa are the three schools that voted against postponing the fall season. This will surprise absolutely no one who has followed the story.
The #B1G's brief filed today targets "three incorrect and unsupportable assertions" in the players' lawsuit, mostly around the vote (it happened) and threshold for approval (60% according to bylaws, league got 78.6%). Also pushes back on claim that one study fueled postponement.

#Buckeyes coach Ryan Day: "I know that yesterday was a tough day for all of us. We woke up this morning with our focus on what’s next, and that's focusing on the spring and the spring schedule."
Ryan Day: "I think we need to start this in the first week of January. That will allow players like Justin [Fields] the opportunity to play in the season and also prepare for the [NFL] draft." Says Fields wants to evaluate the spring plan before making a decision.
Ryan Day offering a lot of specifics on what he'd like to see with spring schedule: Start in January, eight-week season with postseason, allowing mid-year enrollees to be eligible. Says it would be a recruiting incentive for those players.
