The Southeastern Conference tournament begins this evening in Nashville with Georgia facing Ole Miss and Vanderbilt meets Arkansas. Concerns over the Coronavirus led SEC officials to make changes at the tournament. In a statement issued last night, the SEC announced locker room access will be strictly limited to student-athletes, coaches and other essential team personnel.
Members of the media will be able to interview head coaches and select student-athletes via traditional press conferences in the established press conference room. The SEC will also create a separate controlled auxiliary space near the press conference room for a limited number of additional post-game interviews.
