Commissioner Greg Sankey got the 2018 version of SEC Media Days under way with his two cents. A few nuggets:
- Going to a 9-game SEC schedule will not happen any time soon. “Our success as a league should not be attributed simply to our scheduling philosophy,” Sankey said. “But year after year, our best teams have produced the best team in the country. The facts candidly speak for themselves.” And so do the balance sheets! (ch-ching sound effect)
- Sankey sees injury reports as an inevitability. With the legalization of sports betting, this has suddenly become a hot topic issue.
