To say the 451st, 452nd and 453rd meetings between the two Magnolia State baseball programs this weekend are important is the biggest understatement of 2015. The Bulldogs (24-24, 8-16 SEC) and Rebels (25-24, 11-13 SEC) are desperate for wins and desperate for anything positive to carry with them into the final weekend of the season and eventually into the SEC Tournament (if State makes it). Heading into this weekend,…

Now Melvin is being proactive about his next possible step. He’s…
