Big Ten Football Media Days will kickoff in Chicago this Thursday and Friday at the Hilton Chicago and here’s what to expect.

Jim Delany will be conducting his last Big Ten Football Media Days as commissioner this week after taking over the job in 1989.

Although the Big Ten has been left out of the College Football Playoff for the last two years, the league is as solid as ever, with potentially seven ranked teams entering the 2019 season.

There’s also quality coaches and amazing talent on both sides of the ball in both the East and West divisions, including the reigning Doak Walker Award winner in Wisconsin’s Jonathan Taylor.

Although there are a few key players who won’t be attending the event, the 48th annual Big Ten Media Days won’t be lacking star power when it takes center stage at the Hilton Chicago.

Here are some storylines you should expect to hear this week.
