HOOVER –New Tennessee coach Derek Dooley has a job to do and it doesn’t have anything to do with football.
Dooley spent much of the morning at SEC Media Days on Friday discussing the various incidents involving Tennessee football players and what he must do to change the moral landscape of the program.
It may have been somewhat of a surprise to see the LSU Tigers picked to finish fourth in the SEC West this year.
That may explain why coach Les Miles does indeed feel the heat of the fans to begin the process of moving back to the top of the conference. (MORE)

HOOVER - After stating that he had “not been to Miami” to an Athens, Ga. newspaper on Wednesday, Georgia wide receiver A.J. Green would not comment on his status regarding alleged contact with agents this summer…Bobby Johnson’s decision to retire on July 14 left Vanderbilt players shocked and confused. But interim coach and longtime Commodores’ assistant Robbie Caldwell quickly made the best of the situation and the players noticed. (MORE)

HOOVER – Arkansas quarterback Ryan Mallett was asked the typical question that a quintessential All-American might be asked, since he wasn’t expected to return to Fayetteville this year.
NFL scouts say he could have been a Top 10 draft pick back in April. The Razorbacks, although improving, don’t look as though they will challenge for a national title or SEC title and are getting very little support to win the Western Division.
So, Ryan, why come back?

HOOVER –Former G.W. Carver quarterback Chris Relt is a man of few words.
For instance, when asked about Mississippi State’s expectations for 2010, his answer was, simply, “very high.”
But when asked what team he wants to be more than any other (besides state rival Ole Miss), he didn’t exactly mince words…. The Southeastern Conference Office announced Wednesday that kickoff times and television plans have been determined for the University of Alabama’s 2010 football games against San Jose State and Georgia State… SEC commissioner Mike Slive was asked on several occasions how much his conference participated in the summer’s fruit basket turnover and near-ending of the Big 12 conference.

Nick Saban reminded members of the media what year it was for much of the time spent at Wednesday’s SEC Media Days. (Staff Photo)
Staff Report

HOOVER – Nick Saban spent most of Wednesday explaining how the calendar works at the Capstone.
“One thing I want to get established here is I want to make sure I’m in the right year,” he said. “I want to be in the moment here today. Is it 2010? Am I right about that?”
OK, so Saban is tired of hearing about last year. Such is a problem the other 120 or so teams in the NCAA BCS football division would love to have.

If there is any question what time of year it is, follow the college football rumors.
June has traditionally become the month in which media must fill the same amount of space in newspapers or on the evening sports reports but without concrete stories. Websites must be updated to keep up with the Jones. The cycle runs faster these days.
Since few matter-of-fact stories are available (no college or high school games are being played save the College World Series), the rumor mill cranks up. This year, it hasn’t been too difficult with the Big 12 in flux and USC finally getting the hammer from the NCAA.
