Academy may have a good price, but watch out. I went yesterday, noticed a couple of their h20 express rods had some quality issues. 1 of their 7ft rods curved noticably to the right on the last two eyelets. Brought it to the attention of a couple store workers, and they agreed with me. Talked with the manager behind the counter, told him I'd give him fifteen for the rod. He said "No, we're just gonna wait for someone to buy it." I said "You are going to knowingly sell a product that is damaged?" And he said "Yep." I had a few choice words with him.
As experienced fisherman, we know to double/triple check our equipment before purchase. Makes me feel bad for the pilgrim who has a couple bucks and wants to learn to fish, but they don't know to check their gear. Don't buy rods there even if its a good deal. They don't care about the customer. Go to The Tackle box in sulphur or LCT. OB is good people at the tackle box.
