Why does this feel like when a wimpy high school kid gets beat up so he goes and punches his little sibling or some random middle schooler just to make himself feel better?

I just looked at his yearly records at Arkansas state. I’m wondering the same thing. Arkansas state feels like it could be a decent program.How does Raffo even keep his job there?
Arkansas St. just doesn't care. And I mean they don't care more than I've ever seen anyone one not care. You almost couldn't be that bad for that long with trying to.How does Raffo even keep his job there?
Also, if anyone thinks Ron Polk gives one flying f*** about Mississippi State baseball, remember this is the guy he threw a fit about us not hiring. Can you imagine where MSU baseball would be now if Greg Byrne didn’t have some balls?

I wish we did that to USM. But we are too busy fighting Ole Miss.Ark. State gets about a few hundred fans per game at best. Their facilities rival an average high school team. In essence, as the other poster stated......they just don't care about baseball. It's a shame, Jonesboro could be a real nice college town. U.of Arkansas keeps them down in every way. Wish MSU could be located in a town like Jonesboro.
That's kinda common amongst us human types.
My experience is that most USM grads are Ole Miss or MSU fans, some even gawd forbid Bama or LSU fans. Very few of the give a damn about USM athletics.I wish we did that to USM. But we are too busy fighting Ole Miss.
This is not me hating on USM either. We just don't have the resources for a third school to be a power. We don't even have it for the 2 SEC schools. It's a smart strategy by Arkansas. Most Arkansas State graduates are also Arkansas fans. Similar to UAB/Troy/South Alabama graduates as far as Bama/Auburn. But nope, here in MS, all the USM folks hate State and Ole Miss, and further, end up rooting for LSU or whoever.
Yeah. Goat's still living in the 1980s on this one. USM's never going to be a power and they know it. Doesn't matter if we beat them down further or not. And playing them occasionally in football and once a year in baseball isn't really doing anything for them.My experience is that most USM grads are Ole Miss or MSU fans, some even gawd forbid Bama or LSU fans.

I hope ya'll are right. And yes I admit to living in the 80s, watching them beat us down repeatedly during my childhood.Yeah. Goat's still living in the 1980s on this one.

J-Boogie's got it going on. Shoot, they even have a Targets. My guess is they're getting an influx of folks from the new steel mills an hour or so away.Ark.

The key difference is USM used to play State and Ole Miss regularly in football and were competitive. Most of those schools you listed weren't even FBS until recently. That's what makes Mississippi different than Alabama and Arkansas.Most Arkansas State graduates are also Arkansas fans. Similar to UAB/Troy/South Alabama graduates as far as Bama/Auburn.

They have some nice industry close by and the big Post Cereal plant employs a ton of folk and has been there for years. I just wished we had a town the size of Jonesboro (about 3.5x bigger than Starkvegas) and I think that would solve a lot of our ticket-attending issues. Even with the good sized population, they have the Sun Belt and we have the SEC. We just need a lot more industry to support MSU.J-Boogie's got it going on. Shoot, they even have a Targets.
