Kylin Hill, a star running back at Mississippi State, threatened Monday to leave the program if the state does not change its flag. Mississippi is the only state that features the Confederate battle flag as part of its state flag, and it has been under increased pressure recently to move away from that symbol of slavery and the Civil War.

He’s assuming football is still a thing.
They can put his picture on the state flag.
That little booger eating idiot should be cut from the roster and tossed off the campus by close of business, today.
Why can’t he just riot like the rest on them?
Don’t let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya.
Don’t let the door hit you.
The arrogance of this scum never ceases to amaze me.
Keep in mind, the new Mississippi State head coach is Mike Leach, who has been a staunch Trump supporter.
Tee hee hee
Talk about overplaying your hand. LOL-worthy plus
He probably couldn’t spell riot if spotted the R I and O.
If the kid feels that strongly about it, good for him.
Why should the state of Mississippi have a flag featuring the battle flag of the Army of Northern Virginia?
If he wants to leave, let him leave.
Don’t let him come back.
AMF!
Gee, it seems if you’re so upset by the flag, that should have been something you investigated before you signed on kid. Not like this was a recent development.
Speaking of Leach, I know you are familiar with Reggie Leach the former hockey player. Different topic but I read the account of his (former hockey player) life as he was a member of the First Nation in a small town. Alcohol abuse was rampant in his family. Wanna talk about hardship? These pampered poodles bitch for the sake of bitching.
Coming soon to Florida. Rumblings about ditching their flag, too.
Just let him go.
He and Krapperdick can have a zoom party.
The state of Mississippi held a fair and square referendum on the issue of the flag back in April of 2001. IIRC, the vote to retain the flag passed by a 2-1 margin or thereabouts.
No state should be held hostage by the demands of a single football player. If the legislature and governor decided, they can hold another referendum.
