SUMMARY: Mississippi’s sales tax holiday will now occur from Friday, July 12, through Sunday, July 14, as announced by Gov. Tate Reeves. The holiday, initially placed at the end of July, was moved to mid-July through Senate Bill 2470, authored by Senator Walter Michel, to better align with school supply purchasing times for parents. The tax-free weekend enables shoppers to buy clothing, footwear, and school supplies under $100 without the state’s 7% sales tax, applying to both in-store and online purchases. The holiday was extended by an extra day this year. For details on eligible items, visit the Mississippi Department of Revenue’s website.

SUMMARY: Mississippi’s only major-league affiliated team, the Biloxi Shuckers, was eliminated from the 2025 Southern League playoffs after a 4-2 loss to the Montgomery Biscuits in game two of the Division Series. This marks the second consecutive year Montgomery has ousted Biloxi. The Shuckers finished the season 74-64, winning the South Division first-half title. Manager Joe Ayrault, who battled and beat stage 3 colon cancer during the season, praised the team’s effort. Despite an early lead from Jesus Made’s homer and Blake Burke’s RBI single, Montgomery rallied in the eighth inning to win. Biloxi’s next season starts April 3, 2026.

SUMMARY: The NCAA has approved eliminating the spring transfer period for FBS and FCS college football players, following a recommendation to modify the recruiting calendar. The new system introduces a single 10-day transfer portal window from January 2-11 for undergraduate and postgraduate players, replacing the current 20-day December window and 10-day April window. Coaches can still enter the portal within 30 days if their coach leaves or is fired. Players in postseason games after January 7 have a five-day transfer window post-final game. The rule aims to reduce leverage use for NIL deals and takes effect in the upcoming cycle, despite some coaching concerns.
