Summary

SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey's opening statements at SEC Media Days spark debate. Are his comments on scheduling, tournament expansion, and international growth missing the mark? Host Zac Blackerby and guest Darrell Dapprich dissect Sankey's remarks, questioning the commissioner's use of "catchy phrases" instead of addressing key issues. The duo analyzes the potential impact of SEC scheduling changes, NCAA basketball tournament expansion, and the prospect of taking SEC football global. Dapprich challenges Sankey's stance, arguing for bolder moves in expanding the SEC's reach. Tune in for a candid breakdown of Sankey's vision for the SEC's future and how it could reshape college athletics. Will the commissioner's plans strengthen or fracture the conference's dominance?
