You can follow MAC FB Media Day tomorrow on ESPN3 beginning at 10:00 a.m. Lots of updates right here, of course. #MACMD13.

And it's underway, watch live right here....

Sounds like they are going to be having live interviews with all MAC head coaches and prominent players....starting with the EAST, so should have Rod and Jordan on in an hour or 2....talking to the MAC Commish at the moment

10:30 on espn3.com per a tweet.

They already did all the East teams on ESPN3. Just started the West and are doing Ball State now

Jordan and Rod are on live now

what I took from watching my first MAC Media Day coverage:


There are ALOT of talented returning D and O playmakers.
2013 will be both an opportunity and challenge for several solid teams.
Most every "coach speaks" of the process, foundations, continuity, a day at a time, getting better each day....

Of all the coaches who I did watch the most engaging were English and PJ. They stepped a bit outside of the typical coach speak sandbox.

It was interesting that Carey deferred to JL to respond to two key questions.

CMU seems to have the more favorable schedule overall.

UMass is facing a murderous row with fewer bodies than full rostered teams. Did not know Bond on staff.

BSU third down conversion rate last year was insane and Wennigton is back.

Coaches must play alot of golf..... quite suntanned...except for Carey..

I will not be surprised in the winners in both divisions have two conference losses. Seven bowl participants in 2012 sez something.

Hopefully that is because you cannot get in a tan in the film room!

I would. I think Ohio's MAC schedule is rlly soft and I dont think two MAC teams will top NIU.

Looks like Frazier was in fact at the media day. It appears Wisc may be letting him acclimated to the new job before the official start.

Ball St. and Toledo both have pretty good shots at beating NIU I think.

Having a shot and beating them are two different things.

+1
Ball state has a shot at being undefeated coming into our game.

I doubt they will be but wouldn't be surprised if they are.

I hope they are, that means they beat Toledo
