It's headed to Hattiesburg. The plane is predominantly used for Academic travel. The Provost or some other high ranking OM academic person likely has a meeting at Southern Miss.


Are we really flying academic people from Starkville/Oxford to Hattiesburg? What is that, like a 15 minute flight?

Yeah for same day business travel. Can certainly argue whether or not it's a good use of University / tax money - but it's not uncommon.

The choices (after TJ Finlgot kicked off the team) were Sullivan, Kadin Semonza (who was MAC Freshman of the year), Donovan Leary from Illinois who I don't think had any playing time there or one of the two true freshmen.

Retzlaff might not be a great quarterback but he can make things happen.

Program, yes. Team, no. Most of that roster went with Fritz.

Also, even though his star QB (Mensah) left for Duke, he's back in the conference title hunt again.


I will say he got lucky that the byu qb got kicked off the team and went to Tulane.

Going to Hattiesburg… to visit Charles Huff like a reported yesterday.

Hattiesburg has an airport that can handle a private jet. Ole Miss isn't going to fly into New Orleans to drive almost 2 hours to Hattiesburg

Sumrall/AU agreed a month ago. It will be announced after the IB.

Y’all interviewed him last week. I bet you thought that canceled Tuesday meeting was some secret signal you were landing Kiffin. Meanwhile, you were right back interviewing him on Wednesday.”

Nah solid hire imo if ole miss gets him. He killed it at Troy also. Two stops as a HC killed it at both. Find the right OC maybe keep Weiss. Idk but I think he would keep them relevant

It was not by accident or happenstance. That's what happens when a good recruiter cultivates relationships. Check out the back story.

Tulane Football Coach Jon Sumrall’s Best Trait Highlighted in Landing Jake Retzlaff LINK

He was recruited by exactly two schools out of HS, BYU and Troy.
Imagine that.

He didn't 'want' to leave BYU for Tulane. He was accused of rape, then the girl admitted that it wasn't rape so BYU was going to suspend him for several games and he told them to F off.

I heard 5 hours Ole Miss wants Summerall. And wanted him in place as quick as they can get him, when Lane leaves.

Does Ole Miss want to learn to spell his name?

If they can't get him maybe they can go after the Tulane coach.
