Tennessee Vols' Jeremy Pruitt will talk at SEC media days on same day as Nick Saban

Jeremy Pruitt will make his SEC media days debut on Day 3 of this summer's preseason extravaganza in Atlanta.

The conference released its media days schedule on Thursday.

Pruitt will be the 11th coach to take the podium and will address reporters on July 18 at the College Football Hall of Fame. Pruitt's former boss, Nick Saban, will be the first coach to speak on July 18. Pruitt will be the last of four coaches to speak on that day.

Pruitt will join Texas A&M's Jimbo Fisher, Arkansas' Chad Morris, Mississippi's Matt Luke and Mississippi State's Joe Moorhead as coaches making their first appearance at SEC media days.

The day that Saban speaks typically features the most hoopla, as Alabama fans come out in droves to get a glimpse and perhaps an autograph from the coach and the Crimson Tide's three player representatives.

The media event will take place outside the Birmingham metro area for the first time. Previously, it was in Hoover, Ala.

Butch Jones took his turn on the first day of the event last year.

SEC commissioner Greg Sankey will get the four-day event started on July 16.
