Now that we know what players are scheduled to be at the SEC media days, it's time to take a look at who won't be there ... and probably should.
Right off the bat, it's glaring that two of the best players in the league (and the top two receivers) won't be coming. Alabama's Julio Jones and Georgia's A.J. Green are both sophomores, though, and will get their shot next year.
Because of Nick Saban's policy on freshmen speaking to the media, Jones has rarely been quoted at all since coming to Alabama. He did do a few interviews in open locker room settings following the SEC Championship Game and Sugar Bowl last season.
No Anthony Dixon at Mississippi State? What about Charles Scott at LSU or even Terrence Cody at Alabama?
Mount Cody would be a hit with the mass of media, which seems to grow by the year at this event. He's a quote machine and genuinely a funny guy.
On second thought, maybe that's why he isn't coming.
South Carolina quarterback Stephen Garcia would have also been a nice addition to the list, especially with the Gamecocks' season hinging on how much improvement he makes from his freshman to sophomore season.
But, then, he is just a sophomore.
In fairness, it's hard to argue with some of the duos coming: Tim Tebow and Brandon Spikes at Florida, Jevan Snead and Greg Hardy at Ole Miss, Mike Johnson and Rolando McClain at Alabama and D.J. Williams and Malcolm Sheppard at Arkansas.
