Why do we continue to schedule non-con baseball as if the opponent doesn't matter?

I've never understood why we don't use one of those 4 available pre-conference series to play USM like this.

Thursday - Pearl
Friday - Starkville
Saturday - Hattiesburg
Sunday - Biloxi

Or something like that. That way we still keep a home game in Starkville on a weekend, and get the experience of playing in a tough road environment in Hattiesburg. It would also save the funds from having to pay a snowbird team to come down, keep the revenue within the state, and provide us a higher RPI team for 4 games. That many games moves the needle with non conference RPI. Maybe one day we could throw in Ole Miss and call it "The Magnolia Diamond Series", or just go ahead and call it that and leave Ole Miss out. Slap in the face to those crooks.

It would also give our fans in other parts of the state another great chance to see the M over S play.

I'll key Zac Selmon in on our new baseball scheduling model plans, and also Coast Rat's idea to count the Governor's Cup as an actual SEC game.

I love you all,
GOJ

Here's every post in this thread concerning your Ole Miss non con comnent. Show me the one where you...

"made fun of myself for not knowing why he referred to OM as non-con"

????

That was the whole reason you got the response you got. You have doubled and tripled down on the the first dumb post. The only reason I said anything is because you couldn't admit you made a mistake. And my interactions with you make it obvious you have a small screw lose. Get better.
The very first post moron, and the sarcasm on each one thereafter. Jesus you have a lot of time on your hands. I literally said "clearly I'm missing something here." The response about gov cup did not answer the question about why he referred to OM as non-con. Seriously, go get a job or get a hobby. Heisman is your greatest accomplishment, and I can see how you got the accolades, by living on here. But thank you for proving my point for me.

It took about 5 minutes to add those quotes to a post so I'm pretty damn sure your message above took much longer than what you apparently think I spent posting that.

I actually wanted to go through your posts so I could apologize if I missed something and was being an azz (yes, I overdo it sometimes).

I do apologize for being ruder than I should be, but I'm also pretty sure that your communication skills in this thread leave something to be desired. Obviously there were multiple folks here who didn't understand that you were being sarcastic. You just seemed to be willfully ignoring something that was trying to be explained to you.

Anyway. Hopefully now your clear that the Governor's Cup game is a non conference game every year.

My "accolades" come from being here for 20 or so years and posting on average a couple times a day.
