Because I'm sure he was welcomed with open arms and was invited to all kinds of social events. Never heard any racial slurs or anything. State was just loving and open to him.

Took you 3 years to prepare did it not?

It absolutely is. An agricultural school was established in Oxford and no one would attend. You felt too inferior to the "snobs" at Ole Miss. After a few years, it was shut down and kicked out of Oxford and the state legislature started the school again in Starkville.

They played that basketball game one time because they were racial pioneers.
Had nothing to do with wanting to play basketball.

When did I deny any of that? I simply stated that the riots and police escorts never happened.

Yeah. That's inaccurate.
Decide to call an audible?

You don't think he had body guards while he was attending classes?

Multiple inaccuracies and evidence to the contrary.

I bet if I search hard enough I can find a video of Mississippi State fans calling an Oklahoma State baseball player the *N Word* from the early 1990's.

Nope

HJJ, I'm not denying the fact that our students were racist of any kind during that time period. All I'm saying is that it was obviously a much bigger problem at Ole Miss than any other school in the nation. You can't deny that. I'm laying down facts, not biased bullshite here.
