Let the circus begin!
The Insanity, which some refer to as SEC Football Media Days, begins on Monday July 11 in Hoover, Alabama. What once was a chance for SEC coaches to promote their program with the hopes that maybe some local newspaper man would give them a write-up on page 3 of the Sports section, has morphed into a full-blown freakfest invaded by every dork with a podcast, national media, and crazy Bama fans in penguin costumes chasing down Nick Saban for an autograph. Well, that last thing has happened... yet... but don't be surprised.
Would you believe that the very first SEC Football Media Days in 1985 was held at a Birmingham Holiday Inn.
