Just firsthand accounts from people involved. I didn't think this was really in question... Kevin Warren is not taken seriously by the heavy hitters.
Firsthand accounts from Nebraska higher ups?

I just don’t get the sense that Warren is a puppet for Delaney and haven’t heard that anywhere else. Warren has a pretty decent resume. Why would Delaney resign if he was a decently popular commissioner?

Conference & TV higher ups.

Warren is not a Delaney puppet, he does his own mediocre thing most of the time.

But he has lost the confidence of his bosses, and was not trusted to manage the interwoven multi-billion dollar TV/expansion moves. This is his landing spot.

I am confident I can adequately perform the duties of B1G Commissioner.

I can:

1) Do whatever the Chancellors want

2) Watch the effects of better TV deals that are injecting more cash into each university Athletic Department

3) Go to lots of games

4) Intro Coaches at B1G media days

When do I start?

Ok, do you have any evidence for said claim?
One of the owners of a company I worked for in Chicago is good friends with Delany. He said Delany has still been involved after his announced retirement. Said Delany is a visionary and knows how to get shit done. Just said Delany really has the "It Factor". He's also been around Warren a bit but doesn't have much overly positive to say about him. Said it is a night & day difference in the Delany and Warren. He's always felt that Warren was basically a Puppet
