It's probably been 8 years since I've been to Starkville. Earlier this year I had a jobsite visit near Starkville and stayed in town.

There's so much more to do and development everywhere contrasted with what it was like when I was there during the Croom years.

I have to think that the success Mullen had actually brought good attention to Starkville and made it a more inviting town.

All the more reason we really need to make an effort to be competitive in the SEC in football.

Still going to be hard to compete when we're a poor lower population state with 2 SEC schools.
