One of the better two-way players in Mississippi hopes to get his season started off on the right foot on Friday night.

"It's time to put a show on," McNair, who threw for around 1,000 yards and ten scores last season and also picked off five passes on defense.
"This is what it's all about. The Friday night lights. The fans and the coaches."
College coaches?
"I hope so," McNair said.
McNair said he's only heard from one school this month so far - Southern Miss. The Golden Eagle coaches spent most of the time on the phone with McNair's mother.
"She's helping me out with the recruiting process," McNair said.
Earlier it had been reported that McNair had numerous scholarship offers. He said at this point, he hasn't earn any "official offers."
"The coaches act like it in their letters," McNair said. "But I don't know if I have any official ones yet or not."
