Football Trivai:
Tom Landry took a recruiting trip to MSU when he was a senior in High School. Ultimately he signed with the Longhorns. The lure was that his friend John Tripson was an All-American. The main reason for not enrolling at State was the distance involved from Mission, Texas to Starkville, MS.
Never knew that about ol Tom.
Baseball Trivia:
Del Unser, who played baseball at State in the late sixties, was a two time all SEC, and played fourteen years in the majors. https://hailstate.com/sports/2016/5/25/933792.aspx
That article says that Unser's number is retired at State.
Here's the question: What other numbers are retired for MSU baseball?
