The most controversial topic in college football's offseason took a turn today as the NCAA Board of Governors voted to rescind the recent ban on satellite camps.

Satellite camps are essentially high school football camps held off an institution?s campus. They allow college coaches to travel across the country and get a chance to see high school football prospects in other regions. In return, these coaches are able to make in-person evaluations of these prospects, which became a cause of concern for several coaches across the nation, specifically those from the SEC.
With the vote being reversed, several Big Ten personalities took to Twitter to express their reactions on the news.
Here is a look at some of the top Twitter reactions to the NCAA Board's vote to rescind satellite camps.

Great news. Harbaugh wins, but who really wins are the under-the-radar kids who get discovered by small schools https://t.co/I1lP73ibtz

There's a LARGE amount of things I dislike about the NCAA. But they did the right thing today. Satellite camps should have never been banned

Not sure the "high-profile" coaches are any more important than the low-profile ones – but right decision either way https://t.co/ms6B90hTxp
