Rankings from AP Poll

The 2017–18 Big Ten men's basketball season will begin with practices in October 2017, followed by the start of the 2017–18 NCAA Division I men's basketball season in November. The 2018 Big Ten Tournament will be held at Madison Square Garden in New York. Due to the Big East's use of that venue for their conference tournament, the Big Ten Tournament will take place one week earlier than usual, ending the week before Selection Sunday. This could result in teams having nearly two weeks off before the NCAA Tournament. As a result, it is anticipated that the Big Ten regular season will begin in mid-December. Big Ten teams' first Big Ten game would likely be on the weekend of December 1, 2017 with a second game on December 4 or 5, 2017. Coaches have requested that no Big Ten game be scheduled between Christmas and New Year's Day, accordingly each team will play two conference games in early December before finishing non-conference play.

On March 11, 2017, Illinois fired head coach John Groce. On March 18, the school hired Brad Underwood as the new head coach.

On March 16, 2017, Indiana fired Tom Crean after nine years as head coach. On March 25, 2017, the school hired Archie Miller as head coach.

On June 5, 2017, Ohio State announced that head coach Thad Matta would not return as head coach after 13 years in Columbus.
