      While I think Rebel football fans are excited about the coming season, I haven’t seen a lot of unrestrained euphoria about it. There are just too many variables to warrant wild enthusiasm. New head coach, new players, new OC, tough schedule, etc. I believe we’ll do well, but I’ll just be taking it one game at a time.

        Mike is not going to leave of his own accord any time soon, and the Administration is not going to force him out. Our baseball program will therefore remain “stuck in molasses” for who knows how long.

          MSU takes their baseball program very seriously. They might have a “bad” year now and then, but they quickly take steps to see that it doesn’t become the status quo. They have not hesitated to send head coaches packing, even in years where their record would be considered satisfactory at other schools. They always seem to do an excellent job of evaluating talent and signing productive players. They consider making the postseason and regularly hosting to be ”normal“ for them. They won’t tolerate mediocrity in their baseball program. Therefore, there is no mystery why they are usually good year in an year out.

            An Executive Order does not have the force of law. I’m not sure a President can tell the college sports world how and when to schedule games.

              When I played high school baseball, we sometimes cancelled games due to unseasonably cold weather. Our coaches were concerned about the arms of our pitchers, in addition to other concerns.

                Gutsy win by the baseball team. Congrats to our players and coaches.

                  This game was a microcosm of the season as a whole. We just never seemed to get traction and lost a number of winnable close games.

                    When I was at Ole Miss in law school and had an apartment, Larson’s Big Star was my “go to” grocery store, especially for meat.

                        David, has the power company given you an ETA for power restoration?

                          David, this is a minor point, to be sure. Is there any way to change the login screen to give an option to view the password as it’s being typed. Thanks.

                            Thanks, David. I had forgotten softball started this early. I was not familiar with girls’ softball until my daughter played from Jr. High through High School and in a summer league. I thought parents could get upset at my son’s baseball games, but some of the girls’ softball parents could take it to a new level. Overall it was an enjoyable experience for me as a parent.

                              One good thing is that we now have Chancellor Boyce and Keith Carter handling this. I don’t think they’ll roll over and play dead for the
                              NCAA like some previous administrations did.

                                  Dabo’s whiney press conference did only one thing. It trumpeted his shortcomings as a Portal practitioner. A savvy coach who knows how to play the Portal game would never have put himself and his school in the embarrassing situation Dabo did with Ferrell.
