Is this proper ground to give MSU the boot and replace them straight up with A&M?
Ole Miss and State take more from the SEC than they give. If one could be kicked out, I think the remaining school could be competitive. I vote OM to stay. Better campus, more tradition, more money, more potential being the state university. Miss St deserves to be somewhere along the lines of Alabama St or Georgia St but has been propped up by SEC money for so long.

More shite going down in Stans-land?

Mississippi State should have never been founded. I said it. Considering the resources wasted by having two SEC schools in Mississippi, I can with 20/20 vision hindsight say that it was a bad idea to open a separate campus for Mississippi State.
True story: the original plan was to take the Morril Land Grant Act money and use it to expand the Ole Miss campus and curriculum, just as they did in Louisiana and Georgia. Ole Miss was behind this fully (who WOULDN'T want more money?) and started hiring professors and budgeting for agricultural studies and shite. The State legislature, though, being mostly non-collegiate grads who hated Ole Miss (think of a legislative body made up of a bunch of county sheriffs), did not want the Morril money to go to Oxford. The long and short of it is that nobody enrolled in the ag program at Ole Miss, and Mississippi State was founded a little bit later.
So Mississippi State's ENTIRE REASON FOR EXISTING is due to anti-Ole Miss sentiments.
