I got a PM a few minutes ago with the information, and have forwarded it onto Bracky Brett. Hopefully, this situation will be resolved without further incident. Thanks to <redacted>.
A quick aside, neither myself nor DS want this board to turn into a Gene's Page style forum where you can't disparage the athletic department if it's warranted. But at the same time, we are State fans first, and if we get an email like that asking for our help, we are going to respond to it in the manner that we did. Bottom line, if you are looking to hurt Mississippi State, we will not allow you a forum to do so. Now, we don't believe second guessing coaching decisions, calling out players by name, or just bashing a coach in general truly hurt MSU, but a NCAA investigation would, regardless of their findings. If you feel the need to be Internet Badass and put something similar to what was posted today out there, don't. </p>
