TL;DR Summary

The Big Ten conference is embroiled in a scandal involving the University of Michigan, with accusations of a convoluted espionage scheme and stolen signals. New commissioner Tony Petitti is facing a crucial moment in his role, as he must decide how to handle the situation and potentially discipline head coach Jim Harbaugh and/or the program. The finger-pointing and infighting among conference members have tarnished the Big Ten's reputation, resembling the SEC's past reputation for airing grievances publicly. Petitti, who has experience with sign-stealing scandals from his time in Major League Baseball, must not only address Michigan's discipline but also restore order within the conference before its expansion to 18 schools.
