The first day of Big Ten football media days 2026 took place on Tuesday in Chicago, and with it, we heard from about one-third of the coaches and teams in the league. Ohio State head coach Ryan Day won’t have his time at the podium until Wednesday, but we did hear from Bret Bielema (Illinois), Kirk Ferentz (Iowa), Matt Campbell (Penn State), Greg Schiano (Rutgers), Lincoln Riley (USC), and Luke Fickell (Wisconsin).
If you are like us, we are interested in what all the head coaches in the conference have to say, and if so, then we have all of the press conferences from each head coach on Tuesday for you. In this case, we’ve got Rutgers head coach Greg Schiano and what he had to say about where the Rutgers program is and where he is working to make it go.

Have a listen. Schiano will always have a place in the hearts of Buckeye Nation after working as the defensive coordinator under Urban Meyer. He has a long climb to get the Scarlet Knights among the contenders of the league, but the program is in better shape than when he took it over.
We’ll continue to bring you sound bites, news, and commentary from the next couple of days that take place at Big Ten media days, so be sure to check back.
