    Probably a good decision by him. I don't know how he'd handle their fan base. My guess is not well.

    He's comfortable there and recruits the guys he wants, he enjoys it and the kids play hard for him.

    Population (2019 estimate)
    College Station - Bryan - 273,101
    Starkville - 25, 653

    Geography
    B/CS - 2,123 sq mi
    Starkville - 25.62 sq mi

    Just not even close in those areas.

    But hey. We got a Natty in baseball and they dont.

    Yea I thought about doing Oktibbeha Co but that only added like 30K. B-CS is massive. It like most other SEC towns, dwarfs Starkville.

    It's not the size of the town. It's how many Dollar Generals you can fit inside the city limits.

    He didn't turn them down. He was allowed to save face.

    Excellent news. Soon Lemonis will be the next name up, and I think Selmon will let him walk.
