After a big win over Florida that might’ve sealed an NCAA Tournament invite, the Ledger reporter asked Jans if the team has a gun policy and then wrote a story about it. You know, because we’re playing Alabama tomorrow. Shaking my head.
In today’s edition of The Clarion Ledger sucks
- Thread starter FlotownDawg
- Start date
I think that was a guy from AL.com that asked that question. It's at the 8:15 mark.

It was a newspaper, 20-30 years ago.
Just another thing Ole Miss used to control in Mississippi a long time ago.
Not really. 40 years ago we were getting the same treatment from them that we get today. Bought my very last CL in about 1983. Ever since then they can take their paper and stick it where the sun doesn’t shine.
Jans should walk out wearing kevlar with "Say Her Name: Jamea Harris" on it.
Bought my last one in about 1995. We always got the same from them. It used to be a decent paper otherwise though. I read it nearly every day from about 1986 till 95.
They really should be banned from our press conferences. 17rs!
I think it was 1998 or 1997. I was coming back from walking to the end of the driveway to grab our daily edition of the rag. I opened it and started reading as I walked back into the house. The first thing I saw in the sports section was another smart-*** story on Mississippi State. They were obviously making stories completely against us and just were writing some thinly veiled hit piece that was slanted completely like we were very inferior, no matter what sport it was or how well we were doing. I walked in and canceled immediately, and my wife never cared because she said they didn't print anything she wanted except the crossword puzzle. I never renewed after that or bought one off the stand. I moved to Texas and 2007 and I probably only looked at that rag a few dozen times over the years on the Internet usually just to get a score from high school ball.
He should have said it doesn't make any difference because shooting isn't one of our strong suits as it is for a team like bama.
What a stupid @SS question...hope Jans remembers that d0uchebag's face to ignore in the future. Jans' look on his face tells the reality.
On the other side of the coin, it was an opportunity to address the elephant in the room of having a player involved in a shooting/killing (yes, delivering a gun is INVOLVED) and said player is still playing, shows what sort of moral compass bama is guided by...just wins. No morals.

I would have said that "My team hasn't been affected by guns like Alabama has." And I like the idea of a kevlar vest that says "Say her name: Jamea Harris." I would also have said that I was scared that if we won what the retribution would be like and that I was scared for my team. Yes, I'd likely get in trouble and have to pay a fine, but I'd get a lot more people talking about it and that may make the NCAA and/or the SEC finally take some sort of action against their favored team.
Remember when there was a Jackson Daily News for the morning & then the Clarion-Liar for the afternoon.
I do but my family never subscribed to it. Being from Vicksburg, we'd get the CL in the morning and the Evening Post in the afternoon.
Is Brandon Miller's final pass to Darius Miles on that unfortunate night counted as an "assist" on Alabama's player stats official record? I suppose that comment is pretty unseemly, it is, but it isn't as bad as what Alabama and the SEC and NCAA are allowing to happen. Thus my comment.
