I'll be interested to see if he sticks with Mississippi State. As SLICKYINC said, though, it's closer to home. He's from Memphis.
I have some good friends who went to state, as have many of their children. Good, nice people who are in successful businesses that don't involve cows. I've gone to a couple of their tailgates when they play Vandy and found most of their fellow alumni to be like them.
Got some OM friends as well. They definitely fall into the class that people used to call 'cornbred aristocracy'. Plenty smart folks but born into enough money that it didn't much matter where they went to school. Granted, it's a small sample size and I'm sure there are plenty of OM people who've pulled themselves up by the bootstraps.neighbors are Miss State Alum. One is engineer, does ok.
Ole Miss is the one ive heard will accept a heart beat.
