Mountain West media days run from July 26--27 and once again the league will live stream the press conferences and podium sessions with the players and coaches. The league is mixing in a few wrinkles such as a live blog with the two player representatives, twitter updates from @themwc, placing the video sessions on YouTube as soon as the sessions are done and the opportunity to submit a question to a player or coach.
The chat sessions get started at 9:30 a.m. PT and go for 15 minute intervals. To me that seems a bit short, but I guess it creates an urgency for people to get in on the chat. It would be embarrassing for a 30 minute or one hour chat to be empty.
Here is the schedule of events.
