Former Millsaps kicker scores first points in UFL history
SUMMARY: Former Millsaps College kicker Taylor Russolino achieved a milestone as the United Football League (UFL) debuted this past weekend. Russolino, who is remembered for his performance at Millsaps from 2008 to 2011, made history by scoring the first points in UFL’s history—a 38-yard field goal for the Arlington Renegades. In that inaugural game, despite Russolino’s efforts with two successful field goals, the Renegades were defeated by the Birmingham Stallions, led by ex-Ole Miss quarterback Matt Corral, with a final score of 27-14. Corral stepped in after Adrian Martinez’s injury, contributing a decisive touchdown and interception in their victory.

Jackson councilman calls for mayor to take leave of absence amid corruption investigation
SUMMARY: Amid a bribery investigation in Jackson, Mississippi, Councilman Kenneth Stokes is urging Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba to take a leave of absence and consider a plea deal after pleading not guilty to federal corruption charges. Stokes argues that the investigation, which has already led to indictments of four officials, is hindering city progress and eroding public trust. With a trial set for January 2025, Stokes believes Lumumba should prioritize his family’s well-being and cut a deal. The situation has strained relationships in the city, leading residents to relocate and prompting concerns about potential state intervention due to distrust in city leadership.

The inquiry points to a former walk-on, whose account was traced to Jackson, as the potential source but he denied any wrongdoing. Jackson State officials acknowledged the investigation but stated no violations were found. This comes amidst distractions for the Tigers, including seven player suspensions from a recent altercation.
