SWAC takes its turn in front of the media
ALWAYS WATCH IN 1080p HD, WIDE SCREEN
BIRMINGHAM, Alabama -- A whirlwind of activity whetted the appetite of college football fans for ;the last four days as the media faced off against the newsmakers of the Southeastern Conference in Hoover, Alabama.
Now the media moves up the road to the Marriott in Birmingham, where there will be no no shortage of storylines at the 2015 Southwestern Athletic Conference, kicking off its media day at 10 a.m. Friday.
“The exposure part is great (for us),” Jackson State coach Harold Jackson said earlier this week of Friday’s event. “JSU has always been one of the top teams in the SWAC, and we’re feeling like we left a lot of football on the field last season.”
The Tigers’ 5-7 finish in 2014 was their first losing season since 2009. There’s a bevy of experience coming back on defense and skill on offense, so a turnaround season should be manageable for Jackson, who will be in his second year heading the program.
