Paul Finebaum Wants Some SEC Preseason Media Poll Voters To Be Banned

ESPN's Paul Finebaum joined the McElroy and Cubelic in the Morning on Monday to express his displeasure with SEC preseason media poll voters. This is, of course, after last week when eight media members picked Vanderbilt to win the SEC East, five of them even picked them to win the SEC Championship.....

“I appreciate what media days is. But when I see that, I really begin to wonder about people’s right to vote,” Finebaum said. "And I know that sounds crazy, because I’ve always been a big believer in democracy, but democracy has nothing to do with being qualified to vote for the SEC.

“I had somebody come up to me during the week. I’m not going to identify him, but obviously he was credentialed. And he told me he was voting for Vanderbilt,” Finebaum said. “And I shrugged my shoulders because I’ve been to this thing for 40 years. Things like that don’t surprise me. But if you vote for Vanderbilt to win the SEC, you don’t deserve to be credentialed. Because that proves that you’re just making a mockery out of something that we take seriously.”
