STATESBORO, Ga. – Georgia Southern coach Willie Fritz and seniors Matt Dobson and Darien Foreman will represent the Eagles at Sun Belt Football Media Day in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome Monday.
The Eagles will start the weekend by participating in a Youth Football Clinic Sunday morning. After some afternoon meetings, a reception will take place Saturday night, and Media Day officially begins with Commissioner Karl Benson's State of the Sun Belt address at 9 a.m. Monday.
ESPN3 will air two hours of live commercial-free coverage, including interviews with Benson and each of the conference's 11 head football coaches. Matt Stewart and Rocky Boiman, the play-by-play and color announcers of the Sun Belt Network on ESPN3 for the 2014 and 2015 football seasons, will anchor the live telecast, which begins at 1 p.m. CT.
The Sun Belt Conference announced the return of the Social Suite, and the conference has added the video streaming app Periscope to its live coverage. The Social Suite will feature two sessions from 10 a.m. CT until Noon and another from 1-3 p.m. CT. Fans are encouraged to pose questions through Twitter using the hashtag #SunBeltMediaDay.
The Social Suite, hosted by Sun Belt Network sideline reporter Danielle Jenkins, debuted at the 2014 Sun Belt Football Media Day and gave viewers unprecedented live interactions with football student-athletes and coaches. The live stream on SunBeltSports.org encouraged fans to submit questions through Twitter and Facebook that were answered in real time throughout the broadcast. Guests included student-athletes from all 11 football programs and seven head coaches.
Periscope users will be able to login and view coaches and student-athletes answering fan-submitted questions in real time. Each guest on Periscope will be available to solely answer questions submitted through the app.
The Sun Belt Preseason all-conference teams will be announced Monday morning. The team poll was announced Friday, and the Eagles were picked to win the Sun Belt by the league's 11 head coaches.
Georgia Southern won the 2014 Sun Belt title in its first season in the league, finishing 8-0 in the conference and 9-3 overall. The Eagles return 58 lettermen and 13 starters to the 2015 squad.
