Should Maryland Join the Big Ten?
Saturday, November 17th, 2012Rumors are swirling about Maryland joining the Big Ten.
Word is there are serious negotiations for Maryland, a charter member of the ACC, to exit the basketball-centric conference and join the Midwest-centric Big Ten. Geographically Maryland playing Iowa doesn’t make a lot of sense, but financially the B1G offers a lot of cash.
