Cullowhee, N.C. – Western Carolina head football coach Kerwin Bell meets with media members this coming Monday, July 26, as the Southern Conference returns to its in-person Football Media Day. The 2021 SoCon Football Kickoff is to be held at the Biltmore Estate in Asheville.
 
Monday's media day festivities include conference meetings in the morning, with the event kicking off with a luncheon to be held at the Amherst at Deerpark. Both Southern Conference Commissioner Jim Schaus and ESPN senior writer and New York Times bestselling author Ryan McGee will speak at the luncheon. Media interviews on-site are to follow with the SoCon's preseason all-conference teams and polls also to be unveiled at the event.
 
All nine league head coaches will be on hand to meet with the media and preview the upcoming fall season. Then on Tuesday, July 27 at 10 am, a special 2021 Southern Conference Football Preview will air on ESPN+ (subscription required) and through the WatchESPN app, including interviews with each coach, hosted by Pete Yanity.

The Southern Conference, which continues to celebrate its 100 years of history in 2021, enters the fall campaign seeking its ninth FCS title. The league's eight are the second-most all-time in the division.
 
"This year's Football Media Day will be a colossal event at the prestigious Biltmore in Asheville," Schaus said. "We are an elite football conference whose vision is to compete at the highest level of the FCS and be in the mix for a national championship. We are hoping that we will be back to normal competition this fall and can ensure a safe and exciting season for fans."
