It's only been one day of the three total days scheduled for the 2024 Big Ten media days, but we've heard and seen a lot already. The Big Ten no longer releases preseason predictions for an order of finish and preseason all-conference team, but it does announce a flock of players included in its preseason honors list.

This year, the league named 12 players, and two of them belong to one of the four former Pac-12 newcomers, the Oregon Ducks. The team from Eugene not only had representation on its new league's list of players to watch, but it also made a splash with a supersized, inflatable Duck on a river in Indianapolis.

Included among those recognized with preseason honors include quarterback and Heisman hopeful, Dillon Gabriel, and wide receiver Tez Johnson. Oregon is one of just three teams with multiple players on the list including Ohio State (4), and Michigan (3).

We will continue to follow all the comings and goings of Big Ten media days so check back with us through the next couple of days as the other 12 teams make the rounds at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana.
