    Coach Gautreau

    Hadn't see this brought up yet but how pissed do you think Gautreau is right now? I'm thinking he might of had a pretty good thing going with the Boras Corp.

    Yeah. Soon after news broke I thought about him and what he must be thinking. Now, he probably gets lost in the shuffle.

    He may be able to go back to the Boras Corp. if he wants to.

    I'm happy he hasn't quit on the team yet himself, I think he's mad to the point where he would have wanted too and I don't think anyone can see him staying past this year.

    I would be surprised if any of the coaches are back next year. Which sucks for them. I wish them well if it comes down to that.

    He should thrive at MSU. Henderson and Cohen don’t want to destroy the recruiting classes and his resume was built independently of Cannizzaro.

    I think Henderson will treat him like a fox hole brother and he will be great at MSU

    You bring in a name like McDonnell and I doubt the class goes anywhere.

    Even with McD, why not keep the bright young coach and Henderson that maintain continuity with a solid program?

    It?s not like MSU is a losing program, recruiting poorly, or un-ranked nationally

    Hell, until recently we thought Cannizzaro would take us to National Championship glory. Brent Rooker talked glowingly of Cann, that?s significant as he is a gold-plated true Bulldog Why endorse a coach so heavily as you walk out the door, already drafted, loved by your fans if you did not really mean it.

    Maybe McD would keep Gautreau and Henderson but more than likely he'd want to bring in his own guys. It'd be great, if whoever we hire would keep them both. That is if both want to stay.

    As far as Rooker talking glowingly of Cann, he meant it but that was when Cann gave a shit. I'm thinking things went down hill after the season ended. Cann had more time on his hands, was settled in and comfortable with his surroundings and started taking what he had for granted.

    Cann went down when he got that thing on his mind, mighty powerful stuff!

    Because if you can bring in an elite head coach he probably also has an elite staff that he has worked with that know him.

    Like hypothetically- if we hired Tim Corbin you absolutely let him bring Scott Brown and Mike Baxter with him and let them do their thing. Corbin may just be a CEO- but if that's the case you let him bring his top bosses with him that make his system work.

    I think Mississippi State hiring Scott Brown as the head coach is more likely than Tim Corbin. I won't rule out anything, but I'm not expecting Corbin, Jim Schlossnagle, or Brian O'Connor to actually be interested in leaving where they are at. It has more to do with how college baseball head coaches simply don't move around to the highest bidder the way college football head coaches do. I mean, if Scholssnagle were interested in leaving, he'd be Texas's head coach right now.

    It wouldn’t surprise me if we were able to grab Dan McDonnell from Louisville. This could be the perfect time to reach out to him and gauge interest especially the uncertainty around the athletic department at Louisville. Could be a perfect storm to get him. He knows the area and is an excellent recruiter. If he can do what he did at Louisville, he certainly can win a championship here.

    He makes like 1.5 mil a year. One thing about Cohen is he seems to be tight with the pocketbook. We won't offer anyone more than about 750k.

    For the right coach we will. If you want an elite coach, you pay him accordingly.

    That’s right, we have a stadium to fill.

    But I’m not convinced that basketball being a sewer affects baseball much. Everybody knows college basketball was and is a filthy business, the FBI is finally looking into it

    Then we do what Alabama did to get Saban. 3 million. We paid a guy with zero head coaching experience 525k or something like that.
