The Southeastern Conference announced on Wednesday the schedule for this year’s 2026 football Media Days that will take place in Tampa, Florida. Ole Miss head coach Pete Golding will take to the stage on Wed., July 22, for his first full season at the helm of the Rebels.
Golding took over the team for its playoff run after former head coach Lane Kiffin scatted for LSU. The Rebels defeated Tulane and Georgia in the College Football Playoffs before losing a close decision to Miami in the Fiesta Bowl national semifinal game.
All 16 teams will head to the city of Tampa from July 20-23 to mark the unofficial start of the season. Golding will join Alabama’s Kalen DeBoer, Florida’s Jon Sumrall, and Texas A&M’s Mike Elko on Wednesday at the Tampa Marriott Water Street and JW Marriott.
