Mississippi State will be making the most of a record payout from the SEC Network and the College Football Playoff to help its student-athletes prepare for life after college. Like every school in the SEC, the Bulldogs will be receiving a payout of $31.2 million, and they have budgeted a portion of the funds to hire new support staff, including an additional "athletic trainer, nutritionist, and life-skills coordinator for student athletes," according to Sam Cooper of Yahoo Sports.
Mississippi State even intends to bring in financial author and adviser Dave Ramsey, who is renowned for helping people get and stay out of debt.
