Sounds like the Big Ten needs to take RR for his word:

"I will tell you, my conversation with the commissioner (Jim Delany) is that we will watch every Big Ten game very closely, and any non-football act, whether it's a six-inch jab or anything not called for in the game of football, we're going to ask that that person gets the same type of punishment that Jonas Mouton got," Rodriguez said. "And I'm sure the league will do that.

"There's no room for throwing punches in the game. That's not a football act, that's not what we're about. It hurts the team when you do that, and Jonas understood that. He understood it hurt the team, could have been penalized. Was it a malicious act? Was it something that warranted a suspension? They said it did. Whatever the rules are, if that's the rules, we go by the rules. That's fine. OK, that's the precedent, (and) that's what we set. That's why I said we'll look at every act."
Wonder why RR didn't give Ortmann the same punishment as Mouton? Oh, because it doesn't fit his agenda. Stay classy RR.

I guess RR's statement that there should be no punishment for Ortmann should be taken with a grain of salt, considering this was the case just a few days before the Big Ten suspended Mouton for his punch of the ND player:

On Jonas Mouton's "punch," Rodriguez said he didn't see anything that he thought was a penalty, and if something had happened, the refs would have called something. There will be no additional punishment.
