Jumbo Package/SEC Media Days Open Thread | 07.17.13

Quick Jumbo Package to hit on the high notes of yesterday's media days (Quotes/Videos can be found in yesterday's thread HERE):

Gary Pinkel started off his speech by talking about baseball. BASEBALL, people. Somebody teach this man how to ESS EE SEE.

Spurrier worked in a quality jab about Notre Dame:

Another thing that came up, we were sitting there talking about the new four-team playoff. Mr. Hancock, who is on the committee, to try to tell us how it's all going to work out. The committee is going to name the four teams, this, that and the other. He said they were sitting with the commissioners of our BCS conferences and the athletic director of Notre Dame. Somebody said, why was he there? He's equal with all the commissioners. We just started trying to figure out why the athletic director of Notre Dame is equal to all the conference commissioners. Nobody had a good answer except that's the way it's always been done.

And Muschamp had the quote of the day:

Muschamp: "We appreciate our friends from Ohio making sure we follow NCAA rules. They certainly know something about NCAA rules."
