The Big Ten hosted their men’s basketball media day at the Hyatt Regency O’Hare in Rosemont, Illinois, on Thursday and Commissioner Jim Delany got WILD in his opening statement to the collected press.

We had a very successful opportunity to play in New York City, very good crowds, great excitement.
