UPDATE: Adam Schefter is now confirming that Kevin Warren is “expected” to be named the next B1G Commissioner tomorrow.
Minnesota Vikings’ chief operating officer Kevin Warren is expected to be introduced Tuesday as the next commissioner of the Big Ten Conference, sources told ESPN’s Mark Schlabach and me. Warren, 55, would become the first African-American commissioner of a Power Five conference.
