Kickoff for SEC Media Days is Tuesday

Kickoff for the SEC's annual three-day media blitz is Tuesday at noon with an introduction by commissioner Mike Slive. Tennessee will be among the league's 14 schools, including newcomers Missouri and Texas A&M, to take the stage at the Wynfrey Hotel in Hoover, Ala., for SEC Media Days.

UT coach Derek Dooley, who is bringing junior quarterback Tyler Bray, junior offensive lineman JaWuan James and senior linebacker Herman Lathers to represent the Vols, will address the media on Thursday.

According to SEC associate commissioner Charles Bloom, approximately 1,000 members of the media are expected.

Day one will feature both Missouri and Texas A&M, along with South Carolina and Vanderbilt. Florida, Mississippi State, Arkansas, Kentucky, Auburn and LSU will appear Wednesday. Tennessee will be joined by Alabama, Ole Miss and Georgia on Thursday, the final day.

Media votes for the preseason All-SEC team as well as a predicted order of finish for each division and a conference champion will be tabulated over the course of the week.

Three straight days of "Coach Speak" repeated over and over and over again. I wish it was like the old days, with some shouting and finger pointing, comments about the other person's Momma, etc etc.. Wait, that was WWE "Rassling", not SEC Football. These people might end up hugging each other.

Vols,

What a sick person Jeff is..........throwing his school under the bus because he is jealous of the coach.

Is willing to have a losing season to appease his attitude toward the coaching staff.

All you Vol fans need to relax. This will be another in a long line and long future of 500 seasons. Even playing the worst schedule since 1951 will not help that. You are what you have become. Get in where you fit in. The run is over. The Hall of Famer rode off into the sunset. Have a great tailgate. Of course after the Wolfpack beat down the Vols in a half filled Ga Dome, there will be more seats than people for Ga State.
