Miss. State vs South Carolina )Women's Basketball

[Coach34]

She is going to get a pass for this year regardless- but next year things will heat up. Quickly

Next year it has to heat up fast. We will still have talent that someone can bring us back quickly. We can't let what was our best program on campus go back to 80s WBB. Cohen will have to be fired for this is he don't fix it.

As I see it, this team has big talent with bigger egos. I see selfish players who really don't like each other. Unless they are allowed to play with three balls, NMP has to develop a "team" or risk losing players and the program. There could possibly be a need for a purge.

[Captain Falcon]

It feels like there is going to be a mass exodus from this team in the off-season. I’m talking about talented players that have star potential are going to leave while we have to blow it up and start all over, only a year after we finished second in the SEC with a very young team.

It’s women’s basketball so people will just stop caring, but this has been an even bigger failure than Moorhead’s first year. This was an Elite 8 caliber roster and I’m not certain we will even make the tournament.

That is exactly what's going to happen, unless there's a big turnaround before the season runs out.

Amazing... Our women’s Basketball program has been blown up in less than a year.

You reach out to Matthew Mitchell today and see if he has any interest in returning ..

This thread currently sits at 1 and 1/2 pages. In years past it would have been 10. That’s pretty telling.

Zed, your thoughts are exactly why I clicked this link. 2 pagers of chatter when just last year, the MSU-USCe matchup was the best in WCBB. Pinson is a FAILURE.

[Coach34]

Well- gotta let this season play out. But right now it’s not very encouraging

If he had any interest he would be coaching Kentucky. His wife doesn't like Mississippi and they sure as hell don't need the money.

[ZedFedder]

Pretty crazy that our WBB fan base was probably top 5 over the last few years with Vic, maybe top 3 with UConn and USCe. Now, there is a great deal of apathy. I didn't even bother to cut on the game. Things can turn around, and I sure hope they do, but there really is no excuse for this. I remember Jo Mo telling the team that they were laying a foundation for the future, which is what you tell a team who had never won. It was so ridiculous because those guys had already won and laid a foundation under Mullen. This feels like much of the same, but perhaps worse. The foundation was laid as well as it could be. The talent is there. She has crapped the bed so far this year, but hopefully that changes.

I think COVID is playing a large part in all of the administrations decisions, but IMO you gotta part ways with Cohen. We've taken a step back in every sport under his watch. Baseball is still strong but Cannizzaro was a embarrassment that could've been prevented with some research up front. Even the Lemonis hire wasn't smooth; he was at least the third choice and that's ok but all of Cohen's comment prior to made it a cluster.

Ask yourself, if we part ways with NMP tomorrow, do you really trust the current AD to make a good hire? I hate calling the guy out but at some point the writing is on the wall.

I don't disagree with anything else you said but how on earth could anyone have researched more and known what happened was going to happen with Cann?

But that again goes back to who then do you hire to be the AD? Could you pluck Jeff Long from Kansas? Would it be an up and comer like Danny White? And I think the most important question, do you trust that Keenum could make that hire? I'm not sure I do

[Randolph Dupree]

Just going to have to trust me on this one. I know that's not what anyone wants to hear, but I've always been of the same opinion you stated until about 6 months ago.

ETA: I don't think anyone could've known what happened was going to happen, but there was probably enough smoke there that we should've stayed clear of that hire.

Yeah, I don't know who I trust but if I'm searching for an AD I find Greg Byrn's right hand person or someone that worked for him that's an AD at a smaller school. That guy is the real deal.

[yjnkdawg]

Everything is going to be all right. According to our coach in the presser last night we are moving in the right direction going into February.*** We looked to be disorganized, poor coaching, out of control, and not a team effort in doing the things necessary to compete. Edit to say - No effort to play together in a team effort.

[StarkVegasSteve]

Yeah, I don't know who I trust but if I'm searching for an AD I find Greg Byrn's right hand person or someone that worked for him that's an AD at a smaller school. That guy is the real deal.

I'd make a call to Rhett Hobart. That guy knows how to run our dept. efficiently. He was here during both Byrne and Stricklin's tenure and also during Cohen's so he knows how to correct those mistakes that have been made.

[Ari Gold]

Also little rumor going around that Leah Beasley had a hand maybe small Maybe big in the hiring of NMP
If true All I have to say about that is Holy ****ing Shit....
