Barbour encounters unexpected Senate roadblock on Medicaid tax bill
The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal Editorial, 2/10/9 Gov. Haley Barbour has had some well-documented victories in the legislative process, and some setbacks as well. But perhaps his biggest defeat of his tenure as governor came last week during a meeting of the Senate Appropriations Committee. The setback was stunning not only because of the health…

Eminent domain: Necessary tool for good
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 2/10/9 Misplaced political hysteria over a 2005 U.S. Supreme Court decision that broadened the uses for which a government entity can take property for public use has a strange coalition working feverishly to neuter Mississippi’s reasonable, necessary eminent domain laws. Eminent domain recognizes that some “taking” of property is for the public…

Recruiting Is Becoming A Nasty Business
Recruiting Is Becoming A Nasty Business As another National Signing Day has gone into history in college football, I began to think of the good old days, when relatively few people cared about recruiting. Was it so long ago when coaches went out and recruited a kid and that kid said he was going to…

Dooley: Kiffin ‘has a lot to learn
Dooley: Kiffin ‘has a lot to learn The Evil Genius talked big, too. The difference was, Steve Spurrier had already won something before he arrived in the SEC. (Like an ACC championship – at Duke.) Lane Kiffin’s record as a head coach is 5-15. And yet he has, in two-plus months at Tennessee, managed to…

UT’s Kiffin adding spice to the SEC
UT’s Kiffin adding spice to the SEC This year’s SEC spring meetings in Destin, Fla., should be more fun than in years past if only for the chance to stand outside the league’s football coaches’ meeting room. It is expected to be the first time all the coaches are in the same place at the…

SEC ‘spreads’ offense around
SEC ‘spreads’ offense around In football, the SEC is known as a speed conference. To hear Kentucky coach Billy Gillispie talk, the conference might have the same type of reputation on the hardwood. “This league is quite a bit different than the ones I’ve been in because of the style of play,” said Gillispie, who…

FINEBAUM: Tennessee must cut its ties with Kiffin
FINEBAUM: Tennessee must cut its ties with Kiffin There is a simple solution to the anarchy at Tennessee. It doesn’t require committee meetings or deep analysis. It might be costly in the short term, but the long-term effect will be bountiful. To maintain even a modicum of integrity and respect in the world of college…

Signing day’s fun, but who knows what it means
Signing day’s fun, but who knows what it means So, what about this recruiting stuff? It’s all fun and interesting, but what does last week’s trumpeted signings have to do with success on the football field? Everything, and yet, when it comes to hype, nothing really.
