Iowa petition to reinstate in Big Ten tabled after meeting
The University of Iowa failed to gain reinstatement as the Big Ten issued a preliminary ruling delaying any return until it proves it can stop athlete proselyting and subsidizing. The decision, effective January 1, 1980, preserves an expulsion order while Iowa moves to demonstrate compliance and good faith. President Walter Jessup led the delegation.
