Iunno. Just with all that premium TexAgs information that I read over the conference expansion for two consecutive summers, I feel like I have a pretty good handle on how it operates. A blog post by that cock gobbler Berry Tramell never needs to taken seriously.

The point about War Memorial Stadium in Jackson is that it was a viable stadium until Ole Miss. and MSU deserted it. It cost the taxpayers a lot of money. The best attended game in Mississippi was when Ms. Valley State with the great Jerry Rice played Alcorn State in that stadium. I doubt they even collect the full fee now for the colleges that use it.

quote:Not exactly sure what the point is you are trying to make. Yes, both OM and MSU convinced the legislature to expand the stadium and then within a couple of years, quit playing games there. Long past being relevant to any discussions regarding anything important. You can't do recruiting when you have a game in Jackson. Will never happen again.

I am of the opinion that you are talking out of your arse.
That stadium needed to be deserted a few years before State and OM actually pulled the trigger. State and Om both realized how much money their respective towns were losing by having home games in Jackson. Also, it was a disadvantage in recruiting for obvious reasons.
Oh and it's Veteran's Memorial Stadium, War Memorial is in Little Rock, Arkansas.

A much better question is: when is TAMU going to schedule Ark State again?
