SEC media day notebook: Kentucky still has a long way to go

After back-to-back 2-10 seasons, Kentucky is ready for a change.

Coach Mark Stoops, who was only around for one of those seasons, said he’s not ready to declare how many wins would make him feel like the season was a success, but he knows his team has to show progress for him to feel good at the end of the year.

“How we measure success is how we prepare,” Stoops said. “Our players are paying the price. They're working extremely hard this off season. What we do in preparation for our games. Our coaches are putting them in a position to be successful. We're doing everything we can. That's everybody in our program, starting with myself, to do everything we can to put ourselves in a position to win each game.

“With the six games (for bowl eligibility), obviously it's important to us. But I won't put that mark on it because I don't want to give up the other six.”

Stoops noted that he’s confident about this team because it has 15 starters returning and 36 players that have started a game. But he also knows his team is still young and has a lot to learn. He said 60 percent of his players has been part of program since January 2013, so there’s still a lot of growing to do.

“It's a great challenge to be here and to be in this league,” Stoops said. “You better wake up in the morning getting it. You better wake up getting going and recruiting great players and developing the players you have. So that's motivation enough for me right there.”

Still looking for a quarterback

One of the biggest problems that has hampered Kentucky’s success is its lack of stability at the quarterback position. Maxwell Smith and Jalen Whitlow played last season. Smith had the better numbers, but he couldn’t win games. And this offseason, he had extensive shoulder surgery, which kept him out of spring football and has him questionable for the start of the season.

That leaves the door open for a new crop of quarterbacks, including sophomore Partick Towles, redshirt freshman Reese Phillips and early-enrollee Drew Barker. Phillips seems to be the leader heading into fall camp.

“I've been very pleased with Reese,” Stoops said. “He was a guy throughout spring that may have been the most consistent. He was a guy that just did a nice job of managing the offense and staying away from negative plays. Very impressed with Reese. He's got a good chance to win the battle.”

Former Michigan OL Taylor Lewan will stand trial for assault charges

Former Michigan offensive lineman Taylor Lewan might have moved on to the NFL, but the mistakes he allegedly made as a student-athlete haven’t gone away.

Lewan will have a jury trial on Oct. 27 for three misdemeanor assault charges — one charge of aggravated assault and two of assault and battery. The charges stem from an alleged incident on Dec. 1 where Lewan is accused of hitting two men, Ryan Munsch and James Hughes of Denver, outside an Ann Arbor restaurant in the early morning hours following the Ohio State-Michigan game.

Lewan has maintained he did not hit anyone and that he was breaking up a fight. Munsch said Lewan struck him and Hughes after he got involved in an altercation that originally began with the two men and Lewan’s brother, Bryce.

Jury selection will be Oct. 27 and Lewan’s attorney, John Shea, asked for a 45-person jury pool — increased from the usual 30 persons — because of the publicity involved with the case.

Lewan, a first round draft pick of the Tennessee Titans, does have a game at Houston on Oct. 26, but there is a bye the following week.

Nick Saban says Texas never contacted him and never offered him $100 million

Nick Saban said Thursday he had no conversations with Texas and was never offered anything to leave Alabama for the Longhorns.

“Well, I didn't have any conversations with them,” Saban said during SEC media day. “Nobody offered me anything. So I guess if I didn't have any conversations with them, I didn't have very much interest.”

A passage in a new book by the SEC Network's Paul Finebaum and ESPN.com's Gene Wojchiechowski created a lot of conversation this week after it asserted that Texas offered Saban upwards of $100 million to leave the Tuscaloosa for Austin.

"Texas was dead serious about trying to money-whip Saban," Finebaum and Wojchiechowski write. "Depending on whom you talk to -- Bama big hitters or Texas big hitters -- the Longhorns were prepared to give Saban somewhere between a $12 and $15 million signing bonus and a salary package worth $100 million (plus performances)."

It was no secret Saban was Texas’ top target, but few actually thought Saban would leave Alabama, a place where he had become a college football legend. Saban seemed to agree with that thinking on Thursday when he noted that he’s not looking to move around anymore.

“I think the University of Texas is a fantastic place, and they've got a lot of wonderful people there, it's a great institution, but this is about the station in my life where we are,” Saban said. “We moved around a lot. If I had to do it over, I'd have just tried to stay in one place and establish a great program, not have all these goals and aspirations of things that eventually, you know, you weren't happy doing.

“So I'm very happy at Alabama. Miss Terry is very happy at Alabama. We certainly enjoy the challenges that we have there, the friends that we have established here.”

To this point, Saban hadn’t talked much about other opportunities, but there’s no reason to believe he isn’t being genuine, especially with the amount of remorse he’s shown in the past about the way he left the Miami Dolphins for Alabama.

Of course, his comment about if he had to do it again that he would have stayed in one place has to sting some LSU fans. Saban pulled that program out of the doldrums in 2000, won a national title in 2003 and then bailed for Miami after the 2004 season. It’s not like LSU has tanked since then, but it’s hard not to think what might have been had Saban stayed for the long haul instead of coaching the rival school.

As it stands, Saban, who just inked a new contract worth $6.9 million, seems content ending his coaching career with the Crimson Tide.

“This is where we just choose to, you know, end our career someday,” Saban said. “It wasn't anything about any other place, it was just about where we are and what we want to try to do with the rest of our career.”

Ohio State spends some team-building time at the waterpark (Photos)

While most of the college football world is focused on SEC media days and what is often referred to as the unofficial start of the college football season, Ohio State players decided they needed at least one more day of vacation.

So, as part of a team-building exercise, strength and conditioning coach Mickey Marotti decided to take the team to Columbus area waterpark Zoombezi Bay.

SEC media day notebook: Ole Miss is further along than coach Hugh Freeze expected

When Hugh Freeze took over an Ole Miss program that was coming off a 2-10 season, he had one very clear goal — get to a bowl game by 2014.

While the Rebels might very well get to a bowl game this season, it would be the third in Freeze’s three seasons, the first time that’s happened for Ole Miss since the early 2000s.

“To be very candid, I think the journey that we've been on, I think it's faster than I thought possible,” Freeze said Thursday during SEC media day. “When I first arrived there, I really thought we would be going to hopefully a bowl game in year three. We were able to do that in year one and two, and win both of them.”

With the appearance in a bowl game achieved two times over — and two bowl victories — Freeze said his sights are set on something greater – an SEC West title. And while that might seem a little far-fetched in a division that includes Alabama and Auburn, two teams that have appeared in the last five BCS National Championship games, he does think Ole Miss will be a much more formidable SEC opponent this season than it has been in the past.

“I said on Day 1 that my expectations were to make Ole Miss very relevant in the SEC West,” Freeze said. “And I think this year we should be that. That's my expectation, is that we should be competitive in every single game.

"There's no question in my mind we're a better football team today than we were in Year 1 and Year 2.”

During Freeze’s first two seasons, the Rebels failed to beat Alabama, but got confidence-building wins against Auburn and LSU. But Ole Miss has had trouble staying consistent. Last season, the Rebels started 3-0 with wins against Vanderbilt and Texas, but then dropped three straight conference games against Alabama, Auburn and Texas A&M, which put the Rebels out of the SEC West race.

The Rebels also had several young players playing key roles last year and Freeze said he has no doubt that many of them wore down, not only physically, but also mentally as the season went on. However, all that youth last season means 16 returning starters this year.

“Physically I look at (the young players) right now and couldn't be more pleased,” Freeze said. “It's hard to judge the mental state of exactly where they are until we get into the camp mode and get to spend more time with them like that. But there's no question that those guys, when we look back on this season, those guys will have a huge role in defining how successful we are.”

Bo Wallace’s time to shine

,p>With several new quarterbacks beginning their SEC careers in 2014, Ole Miss quarterback Bo Wallace returns as the league’s top passer and has a chance to be one of the top quarterbacks in the league.

Last year, Wallace struggled with consistency, but still threw for 3,346 yards and 18 touchdowns with 10 interceptions. Freeze said Wallace has matured during the offseason and that his work ethic has increased, which should prove dividends on the field.

“He's just been overshadowed by some really good players,” Freeze said. “Continue to cut down on his turnovers, make sure he's making smart plays most of the time. The guy has a chance to, you know, own every passing record in Ole Miss history before he leaves there.

“I think he's matured quite nicely in the way he leads our team, the way he goes about our business. He feels finally healthy and confident. I really think he's at a point where he certainly has every avenue right now to step in and be one of the guys in this conference.”

Wallace also has high hopes for his senior season and was disappointed when he was named third-team quarterback by the league’s media on Thursday. He said he feels kind of snubbed and that he’ll use that as motivation going into the season.

"I didn't think I'd be first. I figured Nick Marshall would be first with the way he led them to a national championship. You can't argue against that," Wallace said. "But I didn't think I was going to be third.

"I think just the way I ended the year. If we win that game in Mississippi State the voting is going to be a lot different. The hype is going to be a lot different. So that's why that's happening. But you know it puts a chip on my shoulder."

Receiver Collins Moore suffers knee injury

Freeze said potential starting receiver Collins Moore would miss 4-6 weeks after suffering a knee injury during offseason workouts.

“We had an unfortunate injury this week with Collins Moore, who was voted our most improved player this spring at the receiving position,” Freeze said. “That is one position we think we have good players there, but we're not as deep as I would like to be. So losing him for 4-6 weeks certainly doesn't help us.”

,p>Moore played in all 13 games last season and was a standout on special teams. He caught five passes for 67 yards and a touchdown, and also blocked a punt that was recovered for a touchdown in the Egg Bowl against Mississippi State.

Freeze’s daughter keeps a ranking of SEC coaches

Freeze’s 15-year-old daughter Ragan has become a diehard football fan. So diehard that she’s started ranking coaches. But her criterion doesn’t necessarily have to do with wins and losses, but more about how the coaches treat her.

“I don't know that I will give you the whole ranking but number one in her book is (LSU) coach (Les) Miles,” Freeze said. “In Baton Rouge he spent 10 minutes with her talking. Then last year when they came to our place, she was out there without me talking to him. To her, that's her, that's her favorite.”

Freeze said his daughter doesn’t rank him, but that if she did, he’d hope she’d put him first. He said in the past few years, since he’s become the head coach at Ole Miss, her love of college football has increased to the point where it’s almost unsettling.

,p>“She lives and dies with this football now,” Freeze said. “It's probably not as healthy as it needs to be. Hopefully as she ages a little more, she kind of gets out of that, but, man, her little heart beats a hundred miles an hour when you win, she's crushed when you lose.”

SEC media day notebook: Georgia QB Hutson Mason ready to take the reins

It’s going to be strange watching Georgia football without seeing quarterback Aaron Murray under center.

Since the 2010 season, Murray has been a staple in the Bulldogs starting lineup and he’s been credited with much of the success the program has had experienced in the past four seasons.

But one player has been right alongside Murray almost the entire way and is using that valuable time as a backup to work his way into Georgia lore in 2014.

Hutson Mason will take over the starting quarterback role this season and coach Mark Richt said he couldn’t think of a better replacement to seamlessly create continuity as the Bulldogs transition from Murray, who left the program as the SEC’s all-time leading passer.

“I think Hutson being there, us knowing Hutson is the guy, the team knowing Hutson's the guy, Hutson knowing how everything works, you know,” Richt said Thursday during SEC media day. “Hutson has been in our system obviously going into his fifth year. But there's been no change in our system. He has the blessing of being with Coach Bobo the entire time, being in the same system the entire time, seeing Murray doing it and having a chance to start a few games last year as well. I think we'll transition well.”

It wasn’t so long ago that Mason and Murray were in a heated battle for the starting role before Murray eventually solidified the position. Richt said he and Mason had several conversations about Mason’s future, but that instead of transferring, Mason chose to be loyal to the team with which he signed.

“He wanted to stick it out and have his moment to shine with the Bulldogs,” Richt said. “He's really sacrificed a lot for this team. He's staying because he loves Georgia and he especially loves his teammates. But he also knew that this season was going to come and he was going to be surrounded by a lot of skill guys, a lot of great backs, receivers, some veteran linemen, a defense that should be matured from a year ago.”

Despite being with the program since 2010, Mason doesn’t have a lot of experience. He appeared in four games in both 2010 and 2011 before being redshirted in 2012. Last season, he played in five games, including making two starts after Murray tore his ACL and was lost for the season. He threw for 968 yards and five touchdowns. He led the Bulldogs back from a 20-0 deficit in his first start against Georgia Tech and then threw for 320 yards against Nebraska in the TaxSlayer.com Gator Bowl.

Georgia was picked by the media to finish second in the SEC East behind South Carolina, but with top running backs Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall, and receivers Malcolm Mitchell, Justin Scott-Wesley, Chris Conley and Michael Bennett returning, Mason has a chance to make his own mark by leading the Bulldogs to the SEC title game for the third time in the past four seasons.

“I think the stage is set for him to have a tremendous senior year,” Richt said.

Receiver Chris Conley working on his next movie

Georgia receiver Chris Conley made headlines this offseason after he made a Star Wars fan film that blew away everyone who watched it.

“I like to think of myself as a really ambitious person, and so when I set our goals for what we wanted to do with this film, I set them extremely high,” Conley said at SEC media day on Thursday. “I said, ‘Guys, we’re going to shoot for the stars and if we miss, land on the moon.’ And when we did that, we really just wanted people to realize that no matter who you are, you can step outside of your box. I know people don’t think that a Division I football player is going to do something with Star Wars and I think we surprised people. I think it was a success.”

Now, Conley, who is returning for his senior season after injury a year ago, said he’s already started working on his next film project. The journalism major, who was wearing Batman socks, said he was stepping away from science fiction genre and will explore the world of superheroes. He didn’t give many details about his new project, but after watching his Star Wars film, there will be high expectations.

“After going through this process and the people that I’ve met and the opportunities that it’s afforded me, moving forward we’re working on another project,” Conley said. “I love to write, I’m a journalism major, and the fact that I can tell a story visually and audibly, it’s just something that I enjoy and I think that I can do in the future.”

Richt reflects on 14 years at Georgia

Richt is the longest-tenured coach in the SEC with 14 seasons at Georgia and he no plans to go anywhere anytime soon.

“I've had opportunities to leave. But I chose to stay,” Richt said. “I chose to stay at Georgia before I even came to Athens. When I accepted the job, my goal was that this would be the last stop for me because there's no greater place than Athens, Georgia. There's no greater program than the University of Georgia in my mind, for me.”

Richt said one of the things that he enjoys most about his job is seeing players go all the way through the program, become men and ultimately come back to the program with their families. He said it’s rewarding to see what kind of people his players become after they leave Georgia.

“I love watching a guy come in as a freshman, go all the way through graduation, watch him grow up. Then it's even more fun five, 10 years later for the guy to come back with his family and talk about all the life lessons he learned while he was at Georgia, and being so thankful for the experience. I've had guys that were just total hard heads during the time I had them, but come back and say, now I see, coach. Now I get it. Thank you for what you did for me, what Georgia did for me.

“I wouldn't trade that for anything.”

Richt has no hard feelings regarding Tray Matthews

When Auburn announced last month that it was welcoming dismissed Georgia safety Tray Matthews to its roster, many thought there Richt would have hard-feelings about the inter-conference transfer.

On Thursday, he said it was just the opposite.

“When guys leave our program, my goal for them is that they continue their career and they continue and realize all their dreams,” Richt said. “Life's too short. They're young men that make mistakes. If somewhere along the way you learn from your mistake, you turn it around, finish your career strong, I'm happy for the guy.”

Matthews, who started six games last season as a true freshman, was dismissed from Georgia after being arrested in March for misdemeanor theft by deception after cashing checks from the UGA Athletic Association with their mobile app, then immediately cashing them again at a convenience store.

Matthews also was involved in a classroom incident where he was accused of talking loudly during his Children's Literature class and then disrespected the professor.

He's probably most famously known for running into safety Josh Harvey-Clemons while trying to make a play in the waning seconds against Auburn. The ball bounced off both players and into the waiting hands of receiver Ricardo Louis, who scored the game-winning touchdown.

Richt said he put no restrictions on Matthews transfer and wanted on the best for him.

“I have never hindered a transfer from going anywhere that he wants to go because, again, I think life's too short,” Richt said. “If this kid can get a fresh start and do well, I'm happy for the guy.”

Vanderbilt retires No. 1 jersey to support young fan fighting for his life

Vanderbilt coach Derek Mason has only been on campus a few months, but he’s already making all the right decisions.

On Wednesday, one of those decisions included retiring the No. 1 jersey for the season, so it could be entrusted to the Commodores No. 1 fan, Michael Sloan.

Michael, a 6-year-old, is currently fighting for his life at Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital after being found at the bottom of a pool last Friday.

Mason presented the jersey to the family on Wednesday and told Michael’s parents no one would wear that jersey number this year.

Doctors told Michael’s family that the 6-year-old had suffered brain damage and as of Tuesday, he had not regained consciousness; doctors were not optimistic about his recovery.

However, on Wednesday, Michael started showing signs of improvement and his breathing tube was removed. Michael’s father, PJ Sloan, has been steadily posting updates on his Facebook page and posted this update Wednesday night:

Today has been an incredible day. The breathing tube is out and he is breathing on his own! This is progress. There is still lots of room to go though. The support we have gotten over the last few days has been amazing. I know that he appreciates them. We have heard from people all over the world at this point. He has had some of his idols make contact with us. When he sees how many people are taking time from their day to think about him, pray for him, or send him a message he will be floored.

I hope everyone understands that I am trying to respond to every message I get. I read all of them, but I can't always respond. I plan on showing everything to him when we get though this.

The family is encouraging those who wish to send them notes on social media to use the hashtag #PrayForMichael.
