Add the Nebraska attorney general to the list of those seeking transparency from the Big Ten Conference.

The office of Doug Peterson on Friday issued a letter to the Big Ten notifying commissioner Kevin Warren that the conference appears to be out of compliance with the Nebraska Nonprofit Corporation Act. According to a news release from Peterson's office, the attorney general is responsible for overseeing compliance with the act by nonprofits operating in the state.

Peterson has instructed Big Ten officials to provide documents and records to determine if they've operated in compliance with Nebraska law and their own governing documents.
