At 7:30 tonight, the Mississippi State basketball team will open SEC play for the 2015-16 season. The game against the Texas A&M Aggies will be significant for one other reason. It will be the first time the Bulldogs have Rick Stansbury in the building as an opponent.
The last five seasons of basketball for the Bulldogs have skewed the way we view and remember Coach Stansbury. 2010-11 was the first year we had with Renardo Sidney and the fight in the stands. 2011-12 started off great ,but finished with an epic collapse that would cost Stansbury his job.
