[QUOTE="FloridaMan, post: 1815298, member: 748523"] Agree 100%. Accountability should start at the top. But it will not until the AD's of the conference demand it. Those in charge are most likely connected and untouchable within the B10 Admin structure and I have no confidence Warren would ever address it unless it involved Mich or OSU. Until the member schools demand accountability there has not, and will be none. The names are public record on the league's website. Those in charge are not difficult to find. Look, I understand it is a difficult job. I've said this many times before. But we continue to see calls have way too much influence on the outcome of games with no efforts to prevent that from happening. Coaches and players must publicly answer questions after each game; no league or game official ever does, and the coaches are monetarily punished if they comment about it directly. The fact that these officials were assigned to the most important game of the season in the Western division that included Illinois, is evidence of - at best - a gross unawareness of what has transpired in the conference this football season (incompetence). It's up to the league. If you want your products' quality to continually lag behind other conferences you will continue with the status quo. If you strive for the best possible product quality, changes must be made. I will not hold my breath. [/QUOTE]
