Last year there were no Big Ten football media days. In fact, there was very nearly no Big Ten football. I haven’t been to media days in a while, but with the ability to work remote and the site of Media Days being less than 5 miles from my house I decided to go. It was the first time I have been to a credentialed event since March 12, 2020 when the Big Ten Basketball Tournament was cancelled as I was sitting courtside.
As part of the need for social distancing this year (even though the vast majority of media was unmasked, so yay vaccines, I hope) the event was moved to the floor of Lucas Oil Stadium.
