Wannstedt: ‘Zero’ talk about Big Ten expansion

Wannstedt declined comment when asked afterward of rumors that Pitt is a possible Big Ten target. Wannstedt said he has had “zero” discussions about the issue, and that any talks would be taken up by school administrators.
Pitt plays in the Big East. The Big Ten has said it is exploring expansion options and has a timetable of 12 to 18 months for a decision.
Paterno favors expanding from 11 to 14 teams. The Hall of Fame coach last year said he’d like to see Pitt, Rutgers or Syracuse join the Big Ten.
