Did a search on SEC rant and didn't find a post on this yet....They just put one up on I-44 eastbound right outside of Springfield,MO. I decided to do an internet search and found out Mizzou got them up in Atlanta, Valdosta,GA, Birmingham, Dallas, Jacksonville, Memphis, and Tampa. Mizzou is serious about this shite. I can remember they did a caravan in Joplin, then on the radio it said Pinkel and Mizzou folks were heading south to Alabama, Georgia, Florida, etc. I'm starting to believe the Mizzou folks about the big donations heading their way.


SEC should be proud to have a future member this excited

Another good article

One article said outside of Valdosta. Don't know which Hwy or how far away from the city limits. The one I noticed that they just put up was about a few miles outside of Springfield,MO. Guess they just put that one up within the past week. I know they did that because I-44 get A LOT of travelers that head West from the East coast to Texas/Cali and vice versa.

Glad that they're enthusiastic about being in the SEC. They need to invest more in baseball IMO though.

I'm sure they will after seeing the other SEC stadiums. I'm sure they've been to Arkansas in the past, don't know about the other SEC schools. They'll have to do big upgrades or build a brand new stadium to compete in the SEC. Hell I don't even think they can compete in the Big 12, don't know much about Mizzou sports.

It would more than likely be on I-75. I drive 4 out of the 8hrs at work every day going to different hospitals in the area. I have not seen this billboard anywhere. So I don't know. I'll keep my eyes open.

Don't know why, but I'm excited about Mizzou joining the conference. I feel like they're a solid addition.

Not bad looking. Just think that it's not really up to SEC standards.

If only we were excited about them joining us.

Baseball stadium is really nice for a small academy.

Baseball and Softball should be getting upgrades soon along with football.

I wish we could have gotten started on this, but Cook, our VP of Marketing has stated they don't really want to spite the Big XII any further and are waiting until our official leaving date. Apparently then we will see a similar marketing push.

I saw the one on i-85 in Atlanta. I like it, it's almost classy.
