I was 17 years old, and I was in the second semester of my junior year in high school. It was the mid-90’s and the Mississippi State basketball team embarked on a journey that saw the team go from season long disappointment to one of the last four teams to keep playing basketball in the Meadowlands in New Jersey.
I want to take this post to go back and remember what it was like as a Mississippi State basketball fan during this season. There are a lot of things that stood out to me as a 16 year old when the season started and as a 17 year old when the season finished.
