Randy Wade and several other Ohio State parents wanted to make a statement on Friday morning, so they traveled to Big Ten headquarters in Rosemont, Illinois – along with parents from three other Big Ten schools – to hold a rally.
While they weren't allowed to protest directly in front of the Big Ten offices – and no one who works for the conference was actually on hand for the rally – the headquarters could be seen in the backdrop as numerous parents addressed a crowd of supporters and media on the turf in front of a nearby mall.
