As a friendly reminder, the Big Ten does not do an official preseason Big Ten team like some of the other conferences. Instead, it highlights “preseason honorees” entering the season — five players from the West division and five from the East division.
One could make an argument that there needs to be more from the East and maybe less from the West this year and other more recent years, but I guess good on the conference for the effort for equality.
One of the Big Ten players that received preseason honors this year, to no surprise, is Ohio State receiver Marvin Harrison, Jr. He is the only player from the Buckeyes that received the honor, with Michigan leading the way with two in the East and Minnesota with a couple from the West.

Here’s the complete list of the ten players announced as Big Ten preseason honorees:
EAST
Taulia Tagovailoa, QB, Maryland
Blake Corum, RB, Michigan
J.J. McCarthy, QB, Michigan
Marvin Harrison Jr., WR, Ohio State
Olumuyiwa Fashanu, OL, Penn State
WEST
Jer’Zhan Newton, DL, Illinois
Cooper DeJean, DB, Iowa
Brevyn Spann-Ford, TE, Minnesota
Tyler Nubin, DB, Minnesota
Braelon Allen, RB, Wisconsin
This list obviously doesn’t mean much until the season begins and we see how things shake out, but it is a nod to what these players have done to date in the league. It’ll be fun to see how each plays this fall and who might surprise.
