NDIANAPOLIS — Big Ten commissioner Kevin Warren told Action Network there are “a handful of schools” besides Notre Dame that would add value as future Big Ten members.
The schools being considered by the Big Ten, sources told Action Network, are Notre Dame, Oregon, Washington, Stanford, Cal, Miami and Florida State. Warren would not comment on specific schools as potential members.
“When I say add value: value is important, but I just look at the fit,” Warren told Action Network Tuesday at Big Ten Media Days. “A fit has to be there academically, has to be there athletically. All those things are really important. There are a handful of schools that potentially could add value to us, but I’m so focused right now that we welcome USC and UCLA to our conference in 2024 with open arms.”
Warren said he was proud that USC and UCLA are AAU (Association of American University) members but also said being an AAU member is not a requirement for a potential future member.
“Literally every Power Five conference school not in the SEC has reached out to the Big Ten,” a source said about schools wanting to join the conference. “University presidents, athletic directors, senior women administrators, you name it.”

Of course they are considering it. Can they get the ACC schools to blow up the GOR? If so, SEC is going after North Carolina and Virginia schools to get that footprint.

If I tell Action Network that Georgia State is interested in joining the Big Ten, do I count as a source?

Schools will do everything short of renaming themselves Big Ten University to get that fourth slot.
Would that be the Athletics' name or the University name? There's a difference.

Seems a lot of schools are hoping for a lifeline from one of the Power-Two conferences. I wonder if a Big 12/ACC merger would work. It would have a pretty good hold on the East, Northeast, Southeast, and Southwest

These fricking assholes held the CFB playoff hostage by forcing the fricking Rose Bowl down our throats b/c of "muh traditions" and now they are going to turn around and kill off multiple conferences out of straight up greed.

What an idiot. He likes change. Doesn’t matter what kind of change, or whether this will turn CFB into minor league football. He just likes “change”.

The ACC can't last. They are tied to a crappy tv deal for ten years at about 35 million per school. While the SEC and B1G will have 100 million per school.
Miami, FSU, and Clemson cannot compete for titles in 2025 beyond given the money differences. The ACC would have to go on strike against ESPN to get more money or FSU, Miami, and Clemson file lawsuits.

No North Carolina? That's interesting.

And the more I look into it the more it seems that they should've taken Oregon over UCLA.

It's not gonna last. They only question is how many teams will be part of the group that breaks away from the NCAA. 48? 64?

I would say the first domino fell 30 years ago, but this impending NFC vs AFC situation didn’t start to take form until UT and OU bolted

Big 10 definitely sees the writing and getting out ahead of it.
In a big way.
