Who is this Allie Roka? These are the most awkward interviews I have ever seen.

Just about every ESPN interview that I have seen where the media is asking questions a mike is not  passed  out  so we don't have a clue what was asked.It might be understandable if there was a gaggle of reporters making it hard to pass a mike around,but this was hardly the case.I never thought I would agree with Ben Gooding on anything, but for a University that offers a degree in communications this was beyond pitiful.

This athletic department...Whew. It's just so, so bad. 

Do they not know how to make "quality improvements" in these press conferences?  Is there anyone on that staff

that watches these things, then makes changes so the next one will be better?  Lordy, Malcom Baldridge would be rolling over in his grave!

Zach & Brelan on now!

The answer is obviously no to all questions above. The productions are ran very similar to how the athletic department is ran in general. I would be embarrassed to put out a product like that to the point of I'd rather not have it then have it this way. If you are going to do something, regardless of what it is, own what you are doing and doing it at the highest level of possibility.

I was in school with Steven Bartolotta who introduced coach Litrell to start this press conference and he worked for me at KNTU and has a degree in RTVF.  He knows what to do.  No excuse.

Did he just say New Orleans bowl in the Cotton Bowl?

Seems edgy with Vito particularly. 

He's adopted the Bonnie Brae culture already

Watching Akunne and Trice interview http://www.meangreensports.com/collegesportslive/?media=519899 

Props on the department for this production, but does anyone have a better vid than the periscope of Littrell?

William Johnson is a great pickup.

If he coaches like Belichick he could walk up to the microphone and fart in it every time he has to address the media for all I care

Even a triple flutter-blast!

We're now a Tier one school.  How about a Tier one press conference.  Could't they mic up the questioners?

Is it just me or is Littrell like the complete opposite of Mac?  Littrell gives shorter, more direct and to the point answers.  Mac would take a question and go on for days.  Just a completely different vibe.

Once you cut out the IOWAIOWAIOWA and FLAFLAFLA related talk, their responses are about the same.
