Duncan McKenzie loves Mississippi State. That much has been apparent as the Starkville native has managed the finances for MSU athletics over the last 28-plus years.
After spending nearly three decades deciding when the Bulldogs should spend and when the checkbook should stay closed though, McKenzie has finally decided it’s time to move on to focus on things even more important in his life
Next week, McKenzie retires from Mississippi State, the school where he played as a tight end on the football team from 1974-77 before eventually rising to his post as an executive associate athletic director.
