Marroons Make A Decision

Evidently all you have to do is beat Ole Miss to get a contract extension. No way in the world I would give an extension to a coach with back to back losing seasons with 3 or 4 wins. Some of you will argue we gave Barnes an extension, but at least he took us to the tournament and we made a run while we were there. Does anyone have an explanation as to why they would do this??

STARKVILLE — Mississippi State football coach Sylvester Croom received a contract extension that will carry him through the 2009 season, the school announced Sunday.Terms were not announced. Croom made about $900,000 in his previous contract, with $180,000 coming from state funds and the balance from the private Bulldog Foundation.
