    You would not see me go crazy but the problem is we only want people we probably cant get or would be super hard to get. We want the trophy wife, not the girl next door. We want Vernalders girl or bust.

    I'd not complain if we got Burroughs. He's very cohenesque is some aspects. I think we could def go More proven but he's a good coach.

    Yea we recruit this way too for baseball and it's why we suck ass. We are the Yankees of college baseball though (minus any titles at all) because we have a pretty stadium and some fans.

    I usually agree w you. But he's nothing like John. He's way more laid back. And not near the hard ass as Jc. Maybe referring to other things

    I just want a coach that can take this loyal fanbase and facilities to the titles it deserves. Right now, we are being supplanted by the other two D1 teams in the state. Ole Miss is packing in 10k+ most weekend games and we are struggling to get a few thousand in a brand new facility. The Rebels #1 recruiting class from a couple years ago is now taking hold. I just feel like MSU Baseball is a flounder that washed up on the beach trying to learn the game.

    Lol! I can remember people raising hell because we couldn’t hit when Burroughs was here. I also see just about every day that Cohen recruited poorly and that’s why we suck. So this makes little sense. We couldn’t hit and he’s like Cohen.....

    Lane or Butch wouldn’t be bad gets although I agree we should shoot for the moon. Cohen saw the HC potential in both while they were here and was basically prepping them to take over their own programs. As for Lane, a couple of things to remember with regard to the team that couldn’t hit the long ball, at that time we were recruiting to play the game with the “dead ball” so small ball and pitching is what it took to win and that worked really well for us until they changed the ball to what it is now. With regard to intensity, being a little more laid back than Cohen isn’t a bad thing. I know for a fact that Cohen’s IB personality was really wearing on some of the kids and these were some of the stand-up, and most dedicated kids. I’m not knocking Cohen btw, just pointing out a few things.

    Lane is a good coach and a good guy.

    Just don’t know if he’s big enough for the job yet. There will be higher ceiling candidates we can get IMO
