A thought to ponder

As I was approaching the cashier at the Flowood Taco Bell I was reading a sign on the counter about their "Make It Happen Program". In small print under it was the phrase "a touhy family foundation". Among the many accolades the program claimed not one appeared to be in the south. They were rather proud of their involvement with youth centers in Columbus, Ohio. Why in the hell would an Ole Miss booster who started a foundation be interested in youth centers in Columbus, Ohio. Could it be that is one of the hottest recruiting beds in the nation?

So when it was my time to order the cashier asked me if I wanted to donate $5 to their program. I laughed and said "you know what? I'm really not even that hungry" and walked out.

Yeah I was never sure if that was a "Man Hands" owned Taco Bell but now that I do I will never go back.

Way to take a stand, even if what you are standing for makes no sense.

Wow! You showed 'em! Also, why ever eat in a Taco Bell?

Actual Mexican restaurants are about the same price and much better. I guess you save time but you give that right back while spending so much time on the toilet.

Does OM have anybody coming in or commuted from the Columbus, Ohio area? I ask because I honestly don't know. Isn't Treadwell from that area of the country?

Treadwell is from Crete, IL, which is a suburb of Chicago. We've got a ton of high profile recruits coming in this week, but I don't think any are from Columbus, OH. Seems absurd that you would try to start a nonprofit in Urban Meyer and OSU's backyard for a recruiting footprint. Ole Miss serves as a kind of backup school for IL kids who can't get into U of Illlinois. Lots of IL, TX, and GA tags in Oxford. Can't remember seeing many OH plates. Kind of like how USCe gets a lot of New Jersey students.

They own a bunch of TB, KFC, and other restaurant concepts from the coast to the Ohio area. Big time players in the quick serve industry.
