    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.

    Prices and flight selection have gone to the toilet in the last few years.
