By Anna Ellingburg

The former Ole Miss chancellor Robert Khayat says the athletic department is now catching up with the academic side of the university, which he says has been “rockin’ and rollin’.”

“I’m glad I’ve lived long enough to see it,” Khayat said.

The former chancellor goes on to talk about what he considers an historic first for the university and what it was like to be chancellor when Eli Manning was signed.
