Default No more Legends and Leaders?

The Big Ten Conference has taken heat for the conference’s names to its two divisions. Now the conference commissioner says the names Leaders and Legends could be on their way out, reports ESPN.com.

Commissioner Jim Delany said when the names were created in 2010, that they weren’t many options to name the divisions. Other changes are coming as well with Maryland and Rutgers scheduled to join the conference in 2014 as the league must decide what division to put the two schools in.

"West" and "East" were already taken by Tupac and Biggie.

He's going to somehow pick something even worse because Jim Delaney basically exists to make the Big Ten look stupid.
