The Big Ten will convene its annual Media Day on July 30, 2026, in San Francisco, California, bringing together coaches, players and journalists from across the conference.
Locksley’s Presence Signals a New Era
Maryland head coach Mike Locksley is slated to take the stage, marking a pivotal moment for a program that has steadily climbed the conference rankings in recent years.
Since assuming the role in 2021, Locksley has overseen a turnaround that includes record‑breaking offensive yards and a string of winning seasons, positioning the Terrapins as a credible contender in the East division.
The event will feature a series of panel discussions, interviews and photo shoots, all designed to give fans and analysts a preview of the upcoming season’s storylines and to highlight each program’s strategic focus.
For Locksley, the appearance is more than a ceremonial duty; it is an opportunity to articulate the team’s goals, spotlight key recruits and reinforce Maryland’s commitment to competing at the highest level as the 2026 schedule approaches.
