The unofficial countdown event for college football has been scheduled.
When it comes to summer, fans of the Southeastern Conference get excited about media days because it is the sign of football’s return. After having SEC Media Days in Hoover (Ala.) last year and for more than three decades – prior to 2018 – the event will be in Atlanta this year.
According to an article from CBS Sports on Thursday, the College Football Hall of Fame and Omni Hotel will serve as venues for reporters.
This year’s media days is scheduled from Monday, July 13 to Thursday, July 16.
