Within the Mississippi State family there are many brave men and women who have chosen to serve for their countries, including ex-Bulldog linebacker Tim Bailey.
Bailey is a native of Avon, Mississippi, where he attended Riverside High School. Along with being a defensive standout for the Bulldogs, he also led the team in receiving his senior year, and even ran the ball. His versatility and size naturally led to college looks, and ultimately landed him a spot at Mississippi Delta Community College in Moorhead, Mississippi.
Bailey made an impact at Delta upon arrival, where he led the team in tackles and was awarded second team Mississippi Community College All-State.
