Despite the Big Ten’s decision to postpone football and fall sports on Tuesday, Michigan coaches and players carried on with practice not long after the announcement was made.
Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh released a statement expressing his disappointment at the decision. A few players, notably defensive end Kwity Paye and tight end Nick Eubanks, posted on Twitter, but defensive back Tyler Cochran was outraged by the decision and took Michigan president Mark Schlissel to task for not being transparent with the team and not communicating with them during the journey that reached this decision.
The Big Ten last Wednesday announced a conference-only 10-game composite football schedule.
