HOOVER, Ala. -- By the time the Arkansas Razorbacks appeared for their two-plus hours of fame at SEC Football Media Days, 12 other teams had been endured.
Georgia's Kirby Smart almost filibustered with an opening statement that took 20 of his 30 minutes with the print media.
The deadpan humor of Ole Miss' Lane Kiffin was the highlight of the week.
Twenty-four players had been interviewed before the Hogs.
And Texas and Oklahoma of the Big 12 had stolen the show as stories broke about their interest in joining the SEC.
By the time Sam Pittman got to the podium, most media members were tired. The Hyatt Regency cranks the air down to about 60 degrees, so everyone was cold. And outside of the handful of Arkansas media, there wasn't a ton of interest.
