What's up everybody? This is Trey Biddy with hog sports.

com coming to you from the Hyatt Regency Birmingham, the Winfrey Hotel

facility so nicely named it twice. It just means more. SEC kickoff media days 2021.

I just thought it was kind of stupid

that they changed that.

It's just so jumbled, so many words,

but it's absolutely accurate.

I mean, this is the event that really reminds you

Football right around the corner two and a half weeks away from the start of fall camp six weeks away from the kickoff of the season. I mean it is right there and this is the one that gets you juices flow and lets you,

I mean, you don't even think about it until you, I mean, you're thinking about it, but you don't

even really realize it until you get here.

And it's been more subdued than it's been in years past. It's not the same energy

level of, you know, media just following coaches around. Cameraman walking backwards in the face

of a coach, crowd of fans down here in the lobby. You know there's only two players

here for each team there's there's fewer media they have to be spaced out a

little more all the COVID stuff and it's been a couple years since I've been to

Birmingham but as last time it was in Atlanta and then last year it was canceled

But it's still a big event and it's still really important to do stuff like this and you know it's the first one for Sam Pittman I thought

he did a great job today to be honest you know I would say to people that I think he

catches people off guard a little bit especially people that haven't seen him in this venue, and really nobody

has in this kind of environment, because this is his first media days, but I think he catches people

off guard a little bit because he just kind of, you know, oh shucks, I don't know the answer to that.
