SEC Media Days have long taken place in Alabama, previously Birmingham and more recently suburb Hoover, but commissioner Greg Sankey is open to having the multi-day event elsewhere.

“We’ve built something special in Hoover,” Sankey said at the College Football Playoff’s annual meetings in Irving, Texas. “But we’re a big conference with a whole lot of interest from a lot of different places.”

USA Today’s George Schroeder notes that Sankey acknowledged that the Lone Star State, which officially became part of the SEC footprint in 2012, could be a possibility. The other piece of the 2012 expansion was Missouri. For possible changes to football media days, the commissioner pointed to an event hosted in that area of the country:

Sankey noted the SEC’s men’s basketball tournament, which has rotated to various locations — and which next year is scheduled to be played in St. Louis — as a potential example.

The 11-state geographic footprint of the conference certainly gives Sankey a wide range of options of sites to potentially host SEC media days.
