SEC Commisisoner Greg Sankey says the league is open to a 14-week season, with two bye weeks. But Sankey says he does not want to move the start of fooball practice to even earlier into the summer.

Speaking the start of football practice, Coach O says edge rusher Arden Key will not be ready as he recovers from shoulder surgery.
At SEC Media Days today it’s Georgia, Vanderbilt, Mississippi State and Florida. The Bulldogs are looking to improve a defense that ranked 110th in the country last year. Gators Head Coach Jim McElwain will be asked about his quarterback situation. Competing for snaps are former LSU commitment Feleipe Franks, Kyle Trask, Luke Del Rio and Notre Dame transfer Malik Zaire.

The Pelicans are 0-3 in Summer League Action after losing to Brooklyn 95-66. Guard Quinn Cook continues to be a bright spot as he had 20 points, knocking down six of his first 11 shots. Cheick Diallo was just 3-of-9 from the field. The dynamic duo DeMarcus Cousins and Anthony Davis watched the game from the stands.

Tonight is the Major League Baseball All-Star. Former LSU Tiger DJ LeMahieu is representing the Colorado Rockies for a second time in his career. LeMahieu is hitting .307 with 4 home runs and 41 RBIs. He has been dealing with a groin cramp, so it’s unclear how much he’ll play tonight.
