Turkey stamp legislation heads to governor’s desk
SUMMARY: Mississippi lawmakers have passed Senate Bill 2280, requiring hunters aged 16 and older to purchase a turkey stamp to hunt wild turkeys. This stamp costs $10 for residents and $100 for non-residents, with proceeds earmarked for conservation projects to restore turkey habitats. The Mississippi Commission on Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks will manage the program. Hunters without a stamp will face misdemeanors and fines, though exceptions exist for disabled individuals and those with lifetime sportsmen’s licenses. If signed by Governor Tate Reeves, the law will take effect on July 1.

SUMMARY: The Pearl Board of Aldermen voted 5-2 to reject a citizen-approved ordinance allowing liquor stores within city limits, despite nearly 60% of voters supporting it in a June referendum. Pearl, a Rankin County suburb, remains in a dry county where liquor sales require special approval. Although Pearl has resort status permitting wine and liquor by the glass in restaurants and beer sales in stores, residents must still travel elsewhere for liquor purchases. Mayor Jake Windham, who opposed liquor stores but supported honoring the vote, expressed disappointment, emphasizing the importance of respecting citizens’ voices and preventing retail leakage.

SUMMARY: Ole Miss football overcame losing 18 starters to dominate Georgia State 63-7 in their 2025 opener. A pregame altercation occurred when Georgia State’s Tyler Scott snatched a chain from Ole Miss’s Da’Shawn Womack, leading to Scott’s suspension for the game. Womack chose not to press charges. Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin praised Womack’s performance, who tied for team-high solo tackles. Offensively, QB Austin Simmons threw for 341 yards and three touchdowns. The running game improved with Kewan Lacy rushing for 108 yards and three scores. Ole Miss rose to 20th in the AP Top 25 and will face Kentucky next.

Harris tallied five tackles, one sack, and an interception in Ole Miss’s 63-7 win over Georgia State, disrupting the run game with his size and skill. Whitson, a transfer from Coastal Carolina, notched one sack, 2.5 tackles for loss—the best in the SEC that week—and five quarterback pressures in Mississippi State’s 34-17 victory over Southern Miss.
