Big Ten to honor Sam Foltz and Mike Sadler with commemorative coin this week

The Big Ten will honor Sam Foltz and Mike Sadler with a special coin to be used at all seven conference games this Saturday.

This week will be the first full slate of Big Ten games, and instead of a typical coin, the officials will flip the special coin honoring Foltz and Sadler before the game. The coin was created by Nebraska, Michigan State, the Big Ten and members of both the Foltz and Sadler families.

While all games will use the coins this week, each school will have the option to continue using the coins throughout the rest of the season.

Foltz and Sadler were both killed in a car accident in July.
