MICHIGAN — Don't give up hope on a Big Ten football season just yet.

Presidents and chancellors of Big Ten schools on Sunday heard presentations regarding medical advances made since the 14-member ruling body of the Big Ten voted 11-3 to delay the fall athletics season Aug. 11, the Free Press reported, citing anonymous sources not authorized to speak about the situation publicly.

While no vote was taken Sunday, the Free Press reported that one could occur in the next day or two.
