The latest blow of suspension of the recruiting staff member Connor Stalions in the wake of in-person scouting took the spotlight. Following this, the NCAA investigation is currently underway to clear the air around the whole fiasco. However, amidst the ongoing conjectures about the sign-stealing scandal, the Big Ten Conference commissioner Tony Petitti garnered scrutiny for his judgment of suspending Michigan Wolverines’ coach Jim Harbaugh.

Following this, as many people came forward to express their disregard for Petitti’s judgement, Barstool Sports owner Dave Portnoy also joined the forces to express his disappointment.

Dave Portnoy boils out after Harbaugh’s suspension

Following the suspension of Jim Harbaugh, the University of Michigan carried out a statement expressing their disappointment with the decision. In their statement, Michigan stated, “Like all members of the Big Ten Conference, we are entitled to a fair, deliberate, and thoughtful process to determine the full set of facts before a judgment is rendered.”

The statement further read, “Today’s action by Commissioner Tony Petitti disregards the Conference’s own handbook, violates basic tenets of due process, and sets an untenable precedent of assessing penalties before an investigation has been completed. We are dismayed at the Commissioner’s rush to judgment when there is an ongoing NCAA investigation – one in which we are fully cooperating.”
