The 2019 edition of Big 12 Media Days is now over, and while the event wasn’t the biggest thing in college football this week (thanks, SEC!), there was nothing small about the venue. Jerry World put out the red carpet for the Big 12, and there were plenty of big storylines too.
There are four new head coaches in the conference
Fully 40% of the teams in the Big 12—Kansas, Kansas State, Texas Tech, and West Virginia—will be kicking off their 2019 campaigns under new leadership. Of the four, only Les Miles has previous FBS experience, a fact he underscored by wearing his BCS Championship ring to Media Days.
