For SEC, tech-savvy fans might be biggest threats to media exclusivityThe SEC, one of college sports' biggest, richest, most prominent conferences, earlier this month sent to its 12 schools an eye-opening new media policy. It places increasingly stringent limits on reporters and how much audio, video and "real-time" blogging they can do at games, practices and news conferences.
But even more interesting is that the policy also includes rules for fans in the stands. No updating Twitter feeds. No taking photos with phones and posting them on Facebook or Flickr. No taking videos and putting them on YouTube.
A conference spokesman said this policy was meant to try to keep as many eyeballs as possible on ESPN and CBS — which are paying the SEC $3 billion for the broadcast rights to the conference's games over the next 15 years — and also on the SEC Digital Network — the conference's own entity that's scheduled to debut on SECSports.com later this month.
Many are saying this makes the bosses of the SEC look like fuddy-duddy technophobes — that they don't "get" new media.

Common Sense Wins: Social Media to Be Allowed at SEC Games
"I see social media as a way that our fans can be engaged and share the positive word of what goes on in our universities and our stadiums. We talk about the environment around our games and that it’s an experience, not just a football game.
I think if we have fans in our stands that tweet, and enter Facebook entries, and a take pictures and show everyone having a great time whether it’s tailgating or the scenery around stadium - I think that’s a positive that we can use to get the word out about the atmosphere of our ball games.“
Charles Bloom - SEC Associate Commissioner of Media Relations
