Paul Finebaum will speak at Ole Miss graduation ceremony

OXFORD -- Who better to encourage the future lawyers of Mississippi than the man who has made a living letting Alabama and Auburn fans rant on the radio?

Paul Finebaum, the host of a popular radio show that is now carried across the South and also a SEC Network analyst, will speak at Ole Miss Law School's graduation ceremony on May 9, the school revealed on this website.

There's not an obvious connection to Ole Miss and Finebaum, besides the fact the school is in the SEC. He did visit Oxford as part of the SEC Nation show for an October game against Tennessee. Finebaum is from Memphis, attending Christian Brothers and White Station High Schools before going to Tennessee.

Finebaum graduated with a degree in political science before embarking on a career in sports journalism. He eventually developed the radio show, which has become a huge entity no matter the time of year.

Maybe Paul can tell the graduates something about letting the other side have their voice, no matter how right or wrong they may be. Because, I mean, just look at how he handles Phyllis from Mulga during this epic rant (which came after Ole Miss beat Alabama, by the way).
