For the third consecutive year, SEC Network will have a full set on site at SEC Basketball Media Days. SEC Now and The Paul Finebaum Show are live both days - October 17 and 18 - with a total of 15 hours of SEC Network coverage for the men's and women's basketball preview event. The two-day media showcase tips off more than 170 collegiate basketball games scheduled for the SEC Network this year.

SEC Now and The Paul Finebaum Show have a new location this year, as the Grand Bohemian Hotel in Birmingham will serve as the backdrop for the network's coverage from Tipoff '19. The SEC Network set in the Grand Bohemian Hotel is steps away from where the rest of SEC Basketball Media Days will commence.

Dari Nowkhah will host the SEC Now: Men's Basketball Media Day coverage on Wednesday, Oct. 17, with Alyssa Lang assuming her first SEC Now hosting duties with Women's Basketball Media Day action on Thursday, Oct. 18. Fellow SEC Network host/anchor Peter Burns will take over the anchor chair both Wednesday and Thursday for The Paul Finebaum Show, originating on site from the SEC Network set in Birmingham.

Pat Bradley, Antoine Walker and newly-announced SEC Network analyst Andy Kennedy will join Nowkhah on Wednesday for previews and interviews with SEC coaches and players. Returning analyst and former coach Nell Fortner, veteran analyst Debbie Antonelli and University of Georgia coaching legend Andy Landers will link up with Lang for Thursday's live coverage from the Grand Bohemian Hotel.
