The Southeastern Conference’s annual Media Days event is going virtual.
The league made the announcement on Wednesday to cancel the physical event and hold its first-ever virtual football media days.
SEC Media Days was scheduled to be held in Atlanta from July 13 through 16 at the College Football Hall of Fame and Omni Atlanta Hotel.
“Conducting football media days in a virtual format will provide us the opportunity to manage the event in a healthy manner as we continue to be impacted by COVID-19, and will provide flexibility for our programs to adjust their preparation for the 2020 football season according to the preseason calendar that is expected to be expanded due to the cancellation of the spring football season,” SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey said in a statement.
