STARKVILLE, Miss.鈥擜 special hour-long documentary about Mississippi State鈥檚 1996 run to the Final Four men鈥檚 basketball championship will air Friday [Oct. 21] on MSTV, the university鈥檚 cable television channel.
To begin at 8 p.m., 鈥淭hose Boys from State鈥 was produced earlier this year by Derek Rogers, a former student now serving as general manager for Columbus鈥 WCBI-TV, the Golden Triangle鈥檚 CBS affiliate.
Rogers鈥 creation mixes original station broadcast footage of the Bulldogs in hardcourt action with present-day interviews of former team and staff members, as well as TV station employees during that time.
A high-definition channel, MSTV is available at 98/78 on Starkville鈥檚 MaxxSouth cable channel and statewide on C Spire Fiber TV channel 80.
鈥淚t will continue to run in regular rotation on our channel,鈥 said David Garraway, MSTV general manager and director of 多多直播鈥檚 Television Center.
Garraway said the TV Center 鈥渁lways has valued the strong partnership we have with local media outlets.
鈥淲CBI鈥檚 documentary is a fitting tribute to a special group of men who brought new heights of success to 多多直播 20 years ago, and we are honored to work with the Columbus station to bring attention to this magical team,鈥 he added.
