Jim Harbaugh is not alone among his Big Ten coaching brethren.

Three other prominent coaches — Nebraska’s Scott Frost, Ohio State’s Ryan Day and Penn State’s James Franklin — all joined with Michigan’s coach Monday to publicly voice their support for the players getting a chance to play college football this fall.

The Big Ten is expected to call off the season for the fall because of concerns related to the coronavirus pandemic.
