Great to hear. I’d like to see a major recruiting effort from MSU in that area, both in students and athletes.

I really wish JAN or GTR could land some non-stop flights out there again.

It killed me when SW Airlines left Jackson. The first 15 years I lived in Houston, I could fly to Jackson in less than an hour for less than a hundred each way. Now, forgetaboutit.

Carl Newman is working hard to make that sort of thing happen again. If anybody can make it happen, it's him.
