More than 1,000 credentialed media members will pick and prod SEC head coaches and 42 different players over a four-day stretch, hoping to attract juicy soundbites for their respective audiences. Athletes come in suits, fans in gameday garb and television personalities in midseason form to bring you large doses of hype as we near the 2015 season.

The SEC Network will televise the event and SportsCenter, the mothership’s most-watched show, will be in attendance:

‘Alabama Day’ is Wednesday. Nick Saban and Kentucky’s Mark Stoops speak in the morning before giving way to Gary Pinkel and Bret Bielema in the afternoon. SEC Media Days concludes on Thursday with three coaches — Mark Richt, Les Miles and Hugh Freeze.
