Big Ten Media Days are underway after kicking off in Indianapolis. Like previous years, the event will last two days with half the conference’s coaches and players attending Tuesday, while the other half will appear on Wednesday. Unlike previous years, this year’s event will take place in the same location where Big Ten plays its championship game: Lucas Oil Stadium.
The event is one of the landmarks of every college football offseason, a mile marker indicating that the new season is near.
Big Ten commissioner Kevin Warren will open the event with a 45-minute press conference, at which point he will likely be asked about two future members (USC and UCLA), as well as what lies ahead in conference realignment. That’s not even including other hot-button issues like name, image and likeness and College Football Playoff formatting.
Here’s a complete list of the speaking schedule over two days, as well as the players who will be in attendance.
