Southeastern Conference Football Media Days kicks off Wednesday in Hoover, Ala. The UK football team, which will be represented by first-year head coach Joker Phillips, wide receiver Randall Cobb, running back Derrick Locke and defensive end DeQuin Evans, will be a part of the first day of the three-day event.
I’ve been giving the opportunity to fly with the team down to Birmingham to provide you with some action from the media spectacle. I will have some video interviews, tweets (@UKAthleticsNews) and posts from the all-day event, starting about mid-afternoon.
The first thing planned on the docket will be a live blog of Phillips’ news conference. Phillips and UK’s portion of the media event is scheduled to start at 4:20 p.m. ET, at which point we will start the live blog as well.
Also, the SEC is planning on live streaming all three days from Birmingham on its website, starting at 2 p.m. ET. This link will take you to the video player as well as a live blog from the SEC.
Check back in Wednesday at 4 p.m. for the live blog.
Update: Just as a heads up, we’re scheduled to depart Lexington at approximately 1:50 p.m. ET with Phillips and the three players. I’ll have some tweets before and after we land, so stay tuned.
