Media day season continues on Friday, July 31 with the Great Lakes Valley Conference hosting its annual Football Kickoff. The event will be hosted on the campus of McKendree University. Each team will be represented by the head coach and two student athletes, who will be available for opening comments and Q&A in 10 minute segments. The participants will then rotate through a series of stations designed to generate social media content. Commissioner Jim Naumovich will also speak at the conclusion of the opening press conference. D2Football.com will have additional coverage later today after the preseason coaches' poll is released.
