The University of Maryland will hold a press conference Monday afternoon announcing its intentions to join the Big Ten, which will be effective beginning in 2014. As initially reported by ESPN’s Brett McMurphy, the school’s Board of Regents met Monday morning and approved the decision to leave the ACC (which Maryland was a charter member of) and become the Big Ten’s 13th member.

The Big Ten Network will televise the Maryland press conference live at 1:30 p.m. Central.
