As we begin today, I want to start by officially welcoming and congratulating all the new Bulldogs who have joined the Mississippi State family today. Those who have committed to spending their collegiate careers with us are inheriting the unflinching support and unending passion of a fan base that has been cheering on Bulldogs for over 100 years. As hard as you work on the field and in the classroom, we will work just as hard to ensure that your experience at MSU is everything our coaches have promised it would be and more.

To our fans, please join me in supporting these young men and women who have entrusted their education and their future to us. Today is one of the most special days of their young lives, and we are thrilled to have been a part of it.

Please visit www.hailstate.com/signingday17 to get a full recap of football's great day, including our early enrollees and our high-profile signees from today. We all look forward to watching our newest Bulldogs blossom in the years to come.

BASKETBALL BACK IN THE HUMP

As we make our way toward the weekend, makes plan to join us in Humphrey Coliseum as both of our teams are in action at home. Coming off a big win over Texas A&M Sunday, our women play at Auburn tomorrow at 8 p.m. on the SEC Network, then we host Missouri on Sunday at 1:30 on ESPNU. Meanwhile, our men welcome Tennessee to town at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday with an SEC Network broadcast.

Of note, our women's game Sunday is a white out, so make sure to grab a white jacket or shirt.

TRACK, TENNIS TEAMS CONTINUE HOT START

While our track and field teams make their way through the indoor season, I want to congratulate Logan Boss for setting the school record in the women's high jump over the weekend – and doing so for the second week in a row! Logan's jump was the highest in the country, an impressive accomplishment.

Meanwhile, Coach Roberts and our 16^th-ranked men's tennis team are off to a 3-0 start after two big wins over Florida State and Iowa on Saturday and Sunday. With the wins, our guys advanced to the finals of the ITA National Indoor Championships in Charlottesville later this month. Congratulations, as well, to Coach Greenan and our 24th-ranked women's tennis team who split two matches over the weekend in the ITA Kickoff.
