    I got a sneaky feeling Cohen has no issue calling Sexton or any other agent on the carpet and getting in their ass. He might not hire the right guy but he won’t get run over.

    Fan reaction to a coach is a very big deal nowadays. Especially since we have fans that are worried about replacing a successful coach. If Cohen hires the equivalent of Rick Ray he may end up at Alabama taking orders and doing menial work that Greg Byrne doesn't want to do. So, he kind of has to make sure that he gets this right.

    Going after. I feel like I hear a good bit of good shit but Cohen is really good at keeping things under his shirt which is awesome and honestly there is a good bit of intrigue so far. See the Cannizzarro hire.

    If he is Cohen is gonna have to be stone cold sold on him to wait. And I don’t think he’s that candidate above everyone else. So IF Pruitt is offered he will be put on a tight clock and will have to choose quick.

    Lol. What a joke. I can assure you John Cohen is not leaking anything for fan reaction. He offered the job to Pruitt and he's interviewing others while he waits on Pruitts decision. Has to have a b plan.

    Cohen was a high level coach. He totally gets the recruiting clock. I doubt he has slept a whole lot since Sunday AM.

    Maybe he doesn't want to get into a Tennessee situation by hiring somebody, then having to renege because of fan protests. That was a very strange situation.

    Anybody losing their mind because we haven't hired a coach in less than 2 days needs to get a grip. Cohen is acting appropriately and in an expedited way. But he is not going to rush and hire someone who doesn't met his criteria. The process is moving well for us. Especially compared to others in our conference who had or are scrambling

    I think he absolutely has. Not like it used to be out there in coaching searches and as stupid as i think it is, you need to get the temp of the fan base that’s supplying cash to keep the machine running. Unfortunately it’s the climate we are in now.
