Despite what some folks spewed for several years Cohen is an elite baseball mind. Also, don't underestimate the importance of Gary Henderson.
Can't recall anyone having more passion for Msu than Cohen. I also thought it was a great hire, him sitting in for other coaches being interviewed was a smart move by whomever suggested him being involved.
1. He wasn't Ron Polk
2. He wasn't always conventional.
And as you know I always liked him and thought he was a good coach. He was without question the coach we needed to rebuild our program and get our attitude right in baseball- and he did and took us further than any other coach at MSU did in baseball.
If Cohen didn't get his guy he could have easily made Henderson the interm head coach and had a whole year to get someone, and everyone here would have considered it a savvy move. That tells me Cann was one of, if not the top choice.
And here we go!!!!!
