    Ole Miss isn't being completely truthful with their enrollment growth

    There are tons of those type idiots out there. My only explanation is they like being "Rebels", in the worst connotation of that word.

    Davis Wade Stadium

    40 feet? Do you think rainwater drainage might be a problem? No, it shouldn't be lowered even 6 inches. Talk about short sighted.

    Davis Wade Stadium

    Cue the "but we ain't got no money" crowd. Our leadership has always been the direct polar opposite of "build it, and they will come".

    Ole Miss isn't being completely truthful with their enrollment growth

    This is what I remember. And the enrollment criteria was incredibly low. There would seem to be an endpoint to the enrollment criteria somewhere. In my opinion the Governor or the IHL should be going back to court to have that ended. Take it to the Supreme Court if you have to. Tell us why...

    Ole Miss isn't being completely truthful with their enrollment growth

    I think in my post I agreed we don't need to be GT. But we need to do a lot better than we are.

    Ole Miss isn't being completely truthful with their enrollment growth

    The incredibly low requirement for entry is just insane. How will we ever become anything but a joke academically doing this? I was talking to a Georgia Tech alumnus a few weeks ago. He said that you need at least a 32 ACT with either Salutatorian or Valedictorian grades in high school just to...

    Ole Miss isn't being completely truthful with their enrollment growth

    Help me out. What ACT and GPA must a Mississippi resident have to get in State? Does the Ayers settlement enter into this? Seems like I remember anyone with a 15 ACT could get in all in state schools under Ayers.

    So Congress is about to vote on time change

    I was in high school when they did this. Absolutely everyone hated it. You got up earlier in the pitch black and cold. Then there wasn't much up side in the afternoon. The sun still goes down pretty early. And it's still WINTER. The supposed extra hour of daylight really doesn't help you.

    So Congress is about to vote on time change

    It's this way now. Arizona and I think Hawaii don't change. I am pretty sure any state can opt out.

    Top 2 CB in Mississippi State football history…

    Normally, I would agree with you. But Smoot could back up his trash talk, and he was just danged funny. He supposed to have told some Vandy wide out "I hear ya'll real smart up at Vandy. Tell you what, you do my homework, and I'll let you catch a pass".

    They need to revisit the lightning in area….

    Lightening struck a tree in my backyard once with blue sky overhead. Could not hear thunder or see rain anywhere. Scared the crap out of me.

    There’s a rumor that private equity is about to get involved with LSU

    I agree and I don't see how this would work. I just hope some PE group rips LSU a new one.

    I just don't get WNBA public relations

    Not me. When they do their "job" they usually mess things up even worse.
