The ACC media days started today, and the SEC's start on Wednesday.
At the SEC event, each team takes its coach and two players to their press conference. Richt will bring Massaquoi and Jeff Owens to represent the Dawgs on Thursday morning at 8:40 am. I think it's a classy move by Richt to stick with seniors instead of the flashy pick of taking Stafford (Jr.) or Moreno (So.).
The most interesting attendee to me is Michael Oher from Ole Miss. After the hype surrounding the book The Blind Side, it'll be interesting to see how he handles the spotlight and media questions on stage.
Here's a look at the full national conference by conference schedule sorted by start date.

You put the ACC in "Greensboro, GA", but I think you meant "NC". No biggie.
No, that is correct. Greensboro, GA.
The Ritz is down with Reynolds Plantation on Lake Oconee in Greene County. Very nice place. I believe they just had a coaches golf outing down there a while back.
Elite 11 QB Camp starts Monday (7/21).
Here's a list of the invitees from 1999-2008.
My bad. I thought they were talking about that big golf resort on the NC Triad.
With the Pac-10 being a 1 team conference they don't need 2 or 3 days. They probably don't need but a couple hours.
