On Wednesday your favorite Mid-American Conference football players and coaches will gather with the media in Canton, Ohio at the NFL Hall of Fame for MAC Media Day 2017.

Normally, the student athletes and coaches will get the same tired questions time and time again. Over/under on WMU directed questions about culture or PJ Fleck’s departure is set at 50. I’m pretty confident with the over. But that’s where we come in. Hustle Belt isn’t going to ask the same old retread stuff. And we have an organizational ban on “Talk to me about...” questions. THE WORST.
Having said that, though, the thing that makes Hustle Belt your not so ordinary site is the connection and community we have with the fans. So, loyal Hustle Belt reader, what do you want to know from any of the participants above? Get your questions in here via the comments below or via the Twitter machines (@HustleBelt) and we’ll see what we can do to get you the answers you seek. Resident HB all-star Rocket will be in attendance and absolutely killing the MAC Media Day coverage. We’ll have your pertinent details on how to stay up to date tomorrow morning.
