2011 SoCon Football Media Day Teleconference

The 2011 SoCon football season kicked off today with the Southern Conference Media Day Teleconference. Media from throughout the Southern Conference region called in to speak with student-athletes and coaches from all the Southern Conference schools.   WCU Head Coach Dennis Wagner and sophomore wide receiver Deja Alexander were the Catamount participants.

Coach Wagner seemed very upbeat the entire interview, and seems confident when discussing the depth of this year's team. "We have made tremendous strides in the strength of our football team and our size and depth. And we've finally got a lot of guys back both this year and next. We're excited to get started that first week of August." Wagner said.

Sophomore Brandon Pechloff and senior Zac Brindise (#1 and #2 on the preseason depth chart) both return at the quarterback positions and will be joined by freshman Jawan Simmons during preseason camp. Wagner expressed confidence in Pechloff's selection as the #1 quarterback going into fall camp.

You can hear all of Coach Wagner's comments, and those of Deja Alexander here as well as the comments of all the SoCon coaches.
