With Jim Delany set to retire on June 30, 2020, the Big Ten has its new commissioner in Kevin Warren, which was first reported by 670 The Score’s Mully & Haugh show.
The Big Ten Conference is expected to name Kevin Warren to replace Jim Delany as Big Ten Commissioner tomorrow morning. Warren, 55, is the Chief Operating Officer of the Minnesota Vikings, the highest-ranking African-American executive on the business side of any NFL team.

Should the reports be true, Warren, 55, would become the first African-American commissioner of any Power Five conference.
