Zach Arnett says MSU football has ‘a long way to go’ before first game
SUMMARY: Mississippi State football held its first practice of fall camp and head coach Zach Arnett said the team still has a long way to go. While the players have a general understanding of the schemes, they need to be further along. Arnett emphasized that the team needs every second of training camp to improve. The team hasn’t started practicing in pads yet, so Arnett is looking forward to seeing them play ‘real football’. He believes that every unit on the team needs to get better and they are not ready to play a game yet.

SUMMARY: Prosecutors in Jackson are seeking a protective order to prevent the release of sensitive information in a bribery case involving Hinds County District Attorney Jody Owens, Jackson Mayor Chokwe A. Lumumba, and City Councilman Aaron Banks. The motion aims to protect personal, financial, and grand jury information, fearing it could impair investigations and fair trial rights. The three officials face charges related to a bribery scheme involving $80,000 in bribes for approving a real estate development project.
