    OT: What are the best areas to live in/around Starkville?

    It is absolutely correct that high tax rates can be offset by low appraisals, you have to have a balance of both. In Starkville we have the double whammy of low taxes and low appraisals. That means that revenues aren't near what they should be for a city of our size. As for other some smaller...

    OT: What are the best areas to live in/around Starkville?

    I would highly recommend the Oktibbeha Gardens area. Greensboro District and Overstreet District are nice if you are looking for an older home. There are some nice places on Tally Ho too that occassionaly come up for sale but some may need work. I won't comment greatly on the city school tax...

    deep said money bears telling him fedora

    Doesn't IHL have to approve the hire? Is there any chance they would block the hiring of a coach from another in state school? I don't really care one way or the other but I am curious as to what politics could play into this if he were to be selected.

    Some numbers in reference to the OM capital campaign

    Actually it's pretty easy to have it both ways. Your fan base is delusional. Everything the OM athletic department is doing at the moment is completely reactionary and dependent upon MSU.

    Some numbers in reference to the OM capital campaign

    So you're saying the delusions of the OM fan base show no signs of abatement and your distance from reality continues to increase. Got it thanks.

    How many people live in Starkville if you include the university?

    But even most of the off campus students aren't counted in the census. Most are still counted in their parents households.

    Wouldn't normally post something like this...

    I don't really want to bust your balls over this but the roads have not recently been legally required to be shared they've always been required to be shared. The share the road campaigns are simply about education so that more people understand what the law is and the purpose of the roads are...

    Tales from the Delta Duck Hole this past weekend

    It's recruiting season and you are wondering why anonymous posters on a college sports message board are acting paranoid and retarded? Did you just start following college football yesterday? This happens every year. It drives me up the wall sometimes but this isn't out of the ordinary. There's...

    Tales from the Delta Duck Hole this past weekend

    We had a complete class committed. Then some of our highest profile and most firm commitments de-committed and then committed to OM. Why wouldn't we be talking about that. We also have threads about Baron Dixon (now locked), MSU vs Bama in basketball, and some lawyer's wifes tit's ala Victoria...

    Tales from the Delta Duck Hole this past weekend

    Actually every thread is about MSU's latest opponent. In recruiting OM is our only opponent this season. Well maybe Vandy given the Dixon de-commit. You will also find threads about MSU vs. Bama in basketball.

    Have we set the record yet for decommits from a Top 15 program without a HC change?

    Have we set the record yet for decommits from a Top 15 program without a HC change? I'm no good at sales personally so maybe I don't have the ability to understand this but what do you have to do to close with recruits who have already committed assuming every thing is above board? We had a...

    Explain your recruiting in 2009...

    What can be learned from the Newton thing so far. First, compliance staff at individual schools in the SEC must also serve as the investigative team to prove wrong doing. Slive has said as much. The SEC office is not an investigative body and MSU didn't provide enough evidence in a time frame to...

    Pretty interesting Article from Forbes

    So why would there be a discrepancy between what the US Dept of Ed reported and what Ole Miss is now reporting to this journalist. I'm sure mistakes happen but that sounds weird.

    Pretty interesting Article from Forbes

    That is interesting. For those who haven't read the article this reflects the 2009 season not 2010. I'd really like to see this information including 2010 going back for at least 5 years. That will give us some indication of where we're heading as a program. Obviously we aren't even beginning to...

    Did not see 0-4 coming for Kennedy and the Bears.

    Could they afford to fire both the football and basketball coach in the same year?
