Expect a big announcement this afternoon concerning a new relationship between FedEx and the University of Mississippi Athletic Department. FedEx is expected to announce a multi-million dollar gift to the University, specifically for a new athletic academic center. It is my understanding the Starnes Center is going to be converted into an academic center for student-athletes. Some are saying this is a gift concerning the North Endzone, but from what I hear this is strictly for the academic center. Expect this to only be the beginning of gifts from FedEx to Ole Miss. FedEx is an outstanding corporation and probably the best corporate friend Ole Miss has. They have always given to various parts of the Ole Miss campus. Hopefully the administration now realizes how much money FedEx has and, that they are willing to give it to us. Several high-executives in FedEx are graduates of Ole Miss. So remember this next time you have to ship a package.
