The Big Ten is in the middle of the Tennessee Volunteers’ quarterback Nico Iamaleava controversy. Iamaleava was an official contract hold out as he skipped spring practice while seeking more Name, Image and Likeness money. He didn’t get any more and now he is gone.

When Nico Iamaleava officially enters the transfer portal this week, it may still be a Big Ten football story because UCLA is reportedly interested in his services. Can they afford him?
