The summer doldrums continue (they’re almost over, folks), but I am working on a larger football story that I will post in a couple of days. In the meantime, check out a few notes from around Big Blue Nation: – Football Southeastern Conference Media Days kicks off in just two days from Hoover, Ala. I’ll be there Wednesday for all the Kentucky-related action and will have some posts and news from the annual event, but make sure you tune into the SEC’s live stream Wednesday through Friday while you’re at work, home, etc. The SEC, partnered with XOS Digital, will have live streaming and a live blog of the event from start to finish. In addition to live interviews with every athlete and coach, the stream will also feature highlights, quick facts and football previews. Check out the SEC Media Days home page at SECsports.com for the live stream. – ESPN.com has posted its annual Blue Ribbon Yearbook preview of each and every team in college football. You will have to be an ESPN Insider to check out what Kentucky has to say about Kentucky, but a pair of Wildcats did make the ESPN All-SEC team. A bit surprisingly, senior tailback Derrick Locke joined Heisman Trophy winner mark Ingram as a running back on the All-SEC team while junior wide receiver made the team as a punt returner. Both will be available Wednesday at SEC Media Days.- For those of you that have kids signed up in the John Calipari “ProCamp,” which will take place July 29-31, UK has announced the three pros that will be in attendance. Sacramento King DeMarcus Cousins will be featured on July 29, followed by top overall pick and current Washington Wizard John Wall on July 30, and Los Angeles Clippers’ guard Eric Bledsoe on July 31. For more information on the camp, check out UK’s camp page.
