Conference USA Media Day is TODAY. Event starts about 9AM. Stay tuned to GoMeanGreen.com for the latest.

I will be covering the event and will be tweeting from @meangreenfan.

You can follow things here on the site but also via twitter feed @gomeangreen. Also if you follow twitter keep an eye out for #CUSAFB as they are recommending that everyone covering the event use that with their updates tomorrow.

East Division coaches and players will do interviews at FS Southwest in the morning and West Division coaches and players will do interviews at the DFW Marriott in the morning (8:30 – 11:30 a.m.). The groups will switch in the middle of the day and reverse locations for the afternoon sessions (12:30-3:30 p.m.).

On the C-USA site there will be free video available of all of the interviews including some comments by commissioner Banowsky.

Here is a summary and link to the C-USA website:

Conference USA's 2013 Football Media Day is set for Wednesday, July 24 in Irving, Texas.
