The Big Ten Conference has seen unprecedented levels of national television coverage during Delanys tenure, highlighted by the creation of the Big Ten Network (BTN). Launched in August 2007 as a joint-venture with FOX, BTN is the first national conference-owned television network devoted to a single conference. Delany has also negotiated media agreements with ABC, CBS Sports and ESPN, while FOX serves as the official broadcast partner of the 2011-16 Big Ten Football Championship Games. Through these agreements, nearly 1,000 events are produced and distributed annually. Delany has seen teams from 23 different sports win NCAA, BCS or national championships, with seven winning national titles last year. The top 10 single-season football attendance records have been established in his tenure, while mens basketball has led the country in attendance for the last 37 seasons. The Big Ten has also added tournaments for mens and womens basketball as well as challenge series with the ACC, Big 12 and SEC. Delany and the Big Ten have been active in the community, creating the school outreach program SCORE (Success Comes Out of Reading Everyday). For the last 24 years, the conference has partnered with Chicago elementary schools to improve reading performance. The Big Ten has also established numerous community programs surrounding its mens and womens basketball tournaments and football championship game. The 65-year old Delany is a native of South Orange, N.J. He received his undergraduate degree in political science from the University of North Carolina in 1970 and juris doctorate degree from the University of North Carolina School of Law in 1973. At UNC, Delany was a three-year member of the varsity basketball team, serving as tri-captain in 1970 and twice participating in NCAA Final Four competition. In September 2012, Delany received the UNC Distinguished Alumni Award. After earning his law degree, Delany served as counsel for the North Carolina Senate Judiciary Committee from 1973 to 1974, and was staff attorney for the North Carolina Justice Department from 1974 to 1975. Delanys distinguished career in administering intercollegiate athletics began at the NCAA where he was employed as an enforcement representative from 1975-79. For the next decade, he served as commissioner of the Ohio Valley Conference.

All Big Ten universities have been granted Tier One Status by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, a distinction awarded to just over 100 universities. Big Ten schools have produced more than 1,450 Academic All-Americans, more than any other conference, including 46 in the last academic year. For the 2011 fiscal year, the Big Ten led all conferences with over $8 billion in research expenditures, more than $2 billion more than any other conference.
LEADERS IN INNOVATION
First awarded the Big Ten Medal of Honor in 1915, honoring outstanding senior student-athletes who demonstrate excellence in academics and athletics. The conference will award its 100th Medal of Honor in May 2014. The Big Ten Advisory Commission was formed in 1972. It enlists former student-athletes to serve as liaisons to the NCAAs Diversity and Inclusion Department, the Big Ten Student-Athlete Advisory Commission and other organizations. The Big Ten became the first conference to voluntarily adopt male and female participation goals after launching its Gender Equity Action Plan in 1992. The Big Ten implemented the first collegiate football system of instant replay in 2004, which the NCAA approved for use among all conferences in 2006. In 2012, the Big Ten partnered with the Ivy League to study the effects of head injuries in sports. In June 2013, Johns Hopkins University was accepted as the conferences first sport affiliate member, allowing the debut of mens lacrosse as an official conference sport in 2014-15.
During the 2012-13 season, Big Ten institutions claimed seven national championships: Indiana mens soccer; Michigan mens gymnastics; Michigan mens swimming and diving; Minnesota womens ice hockey; Nebraska womens bowling; Ohio State womens rowing; and Penn State wrestling. Over the last 10 years, the Big Ten is tied for the conference lead with national titles in 14 different NCAA-sponsored championships, including bowling, cross country, fencing, golf, gymnastics, ice hockey, lacrosse, rowing, soccer, softball, swimming and diving, track and field, volleyball and wrestling.
BROAD-BASED PROGRAMMING
Almost 1,400 Big Ten student-athletes and coaches have participated in the Olympics, winning at least 460 medals, including nearly 250 gold. Big Ten universities provide over $141 million in direct financial aid to more than 8,200 student-athletes playing on more than 300 teams in 42 different sports. The Big Ten sponsors 26 official conference sports, 13 for men and 13 for women, including the debut of mens ice hockey as an official conference sport this academic year. In 2014-15, mens and womens lacrosse will be added as the conferences 27th and 28th official sports, giving the Big Ten more official sports than all conferences other than the Ivy League.
Through the Big Tens media agreements with CBS Sports, ABC/ESPN, FOX and the Big Ten Network (BTN), nearly 1,000 Big Ten events are produced and distributed nationally on an annual basis. In 2006, the Big Ten created BTN, the first national conference-owned television network. With more than 53 million subscribers in the U.S. and Canada and more outside the Big Ten region than inside BTN allows fans to see their teams compete regardless of where they live.
COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
For the last 24 years, through the Big Tens SCORE (Success Comes Out of Reading Everyday) program, the conference has partnered with Chicago elementary schools to improve reading performance. Surrounding the Big Ten Football Championship Game and Big Ten Basketball Tournaments, the conference holds numerous community initiatives, such as the Big Ten Career Expo, SaturDAY of Service, Officiating and Youth Football Clinics and various fund-raising efforts, including the Think Pink promotions benefitting the Pink Ribbon Connection at previous womens basketball tournaments.
PASSIONATE FOLLOWING
The Big Ten leads all conferences with nearly five million alumni and more than 460,000 students. Big Ten fans are some of the nations most supportive, with nearly 9.8 million patrons attending conference home contests during the 2012-13 seasons for football, mens and womens basketball and volleyball alone.

NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS
Since 1869, there have been more than 30 selectors of national champions using polls, historical research and mathematical rating systems. Beginning in 1936, the Associated Press (AP) began the best-known and most widely circulated poll of sportswriters and broadcasters. Before 1936, national champions were determined by historical research and retroactive ratings and polls. In addition, the national champion was selected before bowl games as follows AP (1936-64 and 1966-67), United Press International (UPI; 1950-73), Football Writers Association of America (FWAA; 1954) and the National Football Foundation (NFF; 1959-70). In all other latter-day polls, national champions were selected after bowl games. Currently, national champions are selected by the Bowl Championship Series (BCS), AP, FWAA, NFF and the USA Today coaches poll (previously managed by UPI from 1950-91, USA Today/CNN from 1992-96 and USA Today/ESPN from 1997-2004). Big Ten teams have been named national champions on 53 occasions. Below is a list of national titles for Big Ten teams based on all selectors.
