It won’t be long until the annual spectacle that is Big Ten football media days comes to a television or streaming device near you. I always felt like it was the unofficial kickoff of the new preseason as teams leave and get ready for fall camp, and we almost always get some pretty good stuff coming out of it. It will once again be a three-day event taking place from July 28-30. It will, of course, be broadcast by the Big Ten Network, but we’ll have more on that as the dates near.
Being that you are here, there’s a good chance that you are interested in how and when you can catch head coach Ryan Day and the players that he’s taking with him to Chicago to participate in all the shenanigans (what’s the over/under on Ohio State/Michigan guarantees this year, by the way?) If so, we’ve got the schedule for you for all the team coaches, and when they will step to the podium and have breakout interview sessions after.
