Ole Miss' Hugh Freeze has got some good food recommendations, and some opinions about the confederate flag and suspended star Laremy Tunsil.
Here are his best SEC Media Day Quotes
ON LAREMY TUNSIL
"There's very little to report. We obviously will cooperate fully with, whether it's the NCAA process or the law enforcement process, we will cooperate fully with that. I'm very confident, like I said, in the way we do things and what we can control. I'm very confident in the person that Laremy Tunsil is too, and we look forward to that coming to a conclusion at whatever time is appropriate."

Nick Saban, the Alabama head coach, isn't blaming players for their lack of preparedness going into the 2014 College Football Play-Off semi-final loss to Ohio State.

"I just felt like, in our experience last year, our team chemistry from the SEC Championship game to the playoff game was affected by something," he said. "I think that to have a December 15th deadline from when a junior can submit for a draft grade and then you get that assessment back sometime right before or right after Christmas, and then you have

The SEC Media Days (July 13-16) don't generally have a whole lot, yet they are still entertaining. Maybe it's because Steve Spurrier is always guaranteed the good one-liner, maybe it's because Nick Saban's always whining about something that's wrong with college football, or maybe it's because we're all waiting for Les Miles to kiss one of his players on the mouth.
Here's what we think each school's going to get asked about.....and what they SHOULD get asked about....

LSU's dismissal of redshirt freshman defensive tackle Trey Lealaimatafao on Monday night showed that Les Miles actually has some stones.
After his arrest for hitting a woman after she attempted to stop him battering her boyfriend, Miles immediately suspended the player - who had caused him disciplinary issues last year as well - and then dismissed him on Monday night.

But there we go. LSU will
