As an aside...How/why does Brandon always have the first chance to lob his softball questions during every media PC?
Maybe it’s because he’s the most senior reporter there with respect to covering the team?
Being the most "senior", I wonder why his camera position always shows the side of the backdrop. Makes the stage and video look so bad. That metal frame looks like a cheap backdrop put up inside of a high school cafeteria.
We defer to Brandon on first question as he's covered the team since the late 1990s. Based on the set up in the Media Room, you're either left or right of the podium as the TV sports cameras are positioned center back aisle, as is UCF's static camera for media availabilities.

The metal frame is not something specific to us. Perhaps other schools have larger ones but at least for me, I don't GAF about it and I'm sure the majority of other folks don't either.
It looks fine on TV from the videographers vantage, as well as from UCF's. Difficult to get around it from the vantage points on the sides.
A few takeaways:
1. He didn't seem to do his homework much on us. Very generic answers but it could be early in the process since he's only been on the job 90 days (per his words).
2. I like how he said an event in FL could happen even if it was a "tent-pole" event.
3. I like his strategy about supplementing with streaming but not it being the prevalent way to reach consumers.
4. He's very polished, definitely ain't his first rodeo.

Fair takeaways. Curious to see how his previous experiences mesh with the good old boy network among TV execs and Conference Commissioners.
Also, he didn't go with the canned answer of "our goal is to win championships." He went with give student athletes the opportunity to be the best version of themselves and be relevant.
The other good thing is if they are coming to FL for a tent pole event, they are def coming here!
