Mississippi Rebels Tickets

The Mississippi Rebels appointed Ross Bjork as their athletics director last year and that move has already started to pay. The football team went on to win the Egg Bowl and also went on to clinch the basketball tournament in Bjork’s first season as the head of the university’s athletics division. Some changes to the administration staff were also made and there are some more in store in the foreseeable future. These are early days but Bjork’s work has impressed the management enough to grant him a contract extension. The future looks bright and promising for a program that is all set to make its presence felt once again.
