I hope we beat this f'er and his team like a rented mule.

[Todd4State]

At least he's grateful.**

That's pretty classless.

[msstate7]

What a jerk. We're gonna kill em

[TheRef]

Did he try to do a Popavich-style interview?

"Couldn't use it."

"Wrong color"

[starkvegasdawg]

Wasn't JSU who complained after the football game we didn't pay them enough money? Ungrateful pricks.

Saw on head to head twitter feed that said tsun donated equipment too. First I heard of that.

[Churchill]

What a classless S.O.B..

Yes.

If I was MSU, I'd say OK- will give us the equipment back then.

[RTO Dawg]

Cohen needs to punch that ****er

[ghostofjackie]

If you give a mouse a cookie......... Never mind

[Air of The Dawg]

oooooooooooo.....He's gonna get his

[sandwolf]

Wow.....classy.

[cbrunt29]

Jackass. Let's put 20 on 'em

[Dawg61]

Wow. It's fu*king free equipment and it isn't shit equipment either. Give it back then. Unreal

[CadaverDawg]

Unreal. Free stuff that was donated in a time of need, and you bitch about it and act like a dick? **** you, bud. Next time your shit burns up, you can bat with a ****ing tree branch

[TheRef]

Wow. It's fu*king free equipment and it isn't shit equipment either. Give it back then. Unreal

The look on the ESPN anchor's face is one of pure disbelief...he wasn't expecting that answer at all.

[Political Hack]

Stay classy JSU.

[TexasDawg]

I heard him live on the radio. I couldn't believe it. The guy from ESPN seemed shocked

Ok. I just lost every bit of respect for JSU and their little dog and pony show. I know it was a small sound bite but that is completely uncalled for and he should be reprimanded by the AD and university president. I have always pulled for them in anything they do, but forget them and their bush league program.

[Dawg61]

Can we send him some JSU colored tampons

[Todd4State]

The look on the ESPN anchor's face is one of pure disbelief...he wasn't expecting that answer at all.

I was the same as the ESPN anchor. At the very least they could use bats and baseballs.

[Homedawg]

Well aren't we the assholes. Should have gone and bought there colors! ****

[Harrydawg]

Wrong color baseballs and bats? We didnt give them 17ing uniforms.

Cock sucker, this needs to be tweeted out ASAP......thankless prick.

[chalupabatman]

I'd guess they were sold on eBay. All we can hope is they got bad reviews.

[Dawgcentral]

Wait till next time they have a problem. And there WILL be a next time.

[Dawgcentral]

BTW, I've been wondering since the fire, don't they insure that bus and content? Haven't seen this mentioned.

[I seen it dawg]

Unreal. Free stuff that was donated in a time of need, and you bitch about it and act like a dick? **** you, bud. Next time your shit burns up, you can bat with a ****ing tree branch

They can use that ****** piece of shit taped up stick.

[CadaverDawg]

They can use that ****** piece of shit taped up stick.

Yep

Ungrateful State University

Hopefully USU doesn't throw a soft tossing lefty getting them set up for Ross.

Johnson asked again about the equipment MSU sent. “It was the wrong color. It was maroon.” Asked what was sent: “It didn’t matter."

[EdDawg]

Does anyone know what exactly we donated? I can understand if it was catcher's equipment and the wrong color, but bats and balls?

However no matter what, you thank anyone that is willing to donate equipment in that situation.

[godlluB]

Last night, @sixpackspeak on Twitter was joking that JSU couldn't hit because they were using our Adidas bats. Stricklin replied that we donated last year's Easton bats, no this year's Adidas bats.

I don't know exactly what else was donated, but I remember at the time that it was said that it was equipment, but not uniforms.

Let's be honest though. If the same thing happened to us and Ole Miss sent us a bunch of gear with Ole Miss on it, does it really matter what color it is? I would have been thankful if I was Cohen- and I'm sure he would have been.

And if it's helmets and catcher's gear- how hard is it to go to Wal-Mart and get some spraypaint and paint all of that stuff up?

[Homedawg]

Just don't send em shit- let obama handle it next time. **** em.

[sandwolf]

He is going full on defensive in the Presser.

Unreal.....I can't believe he is actually going to say it again. This asshole is too ****ing stupid to realize that he is being given an opportunity to clear up what he said previously.

[shoeless joe]

This cat probably thinks their miracle win will catapult him to an actual baseball coaching job...meanwhile he is continuing to be an embarrassment to himself and the university. But I doubt anyone associated with them cares...what a joke.

Exactly. And they really didn't win so much as ULL lost it. 99% of the coaches out there don't bunt and try to steal when they are behind like that. ULL only gave up one run- it's not like they kicked the Cajuns ass.

If the AD and/or university president do not demand he make a public apology then they are no better than that bush league loser.

[CadaverDawg]

Prepare for no apology.

[RattStevens]

Clearly, he is a Bat Racist.


And people think I'm a worthless piece of shit bastard.

[Dawg61]

Maybe he had his heart set on the Asstros Unis and we broke it by just giving him useful bats and gloves. Didn't realize a bat had to be a certain color. Did he want the platinum color? Maybe a midnight chrome? Odd

Awesome. Must just be their coach. Pulling for JSU tomorrow regardless. Thanks for posting this, Wade

Exactly, their players are good MS boys. Their coach? Is he even from MS? Those tweets were class acts, and all thats needed. In that interview on SC, all their coach had to say was "yes, thanks for that, it was greatly appreciated", but no, he went the "Popovitch route".

[bluelightstar]

That's all I was trying to say earlier. Johnson obviously represents the university but he was definitely expressing his opinion -- not something shared by a large portion of the JSU fanbase.

[Ragin4U]

I was amazed by that. Cool classy move by your program.

Good for them. They must have learned some common decency, courtesy, and professionalism from their parents. They certainly didn't get it from their coach. Omar could take some instruction from his players next practice in how to be a more grateful, humble person in situations that call for such.

[ScoobaDawg]

What a douche. wow.

He will have all summer to think about it after tomorrow.

[TheRef]

Apparently the players' tweets have been deleted.....take with that what you wish.

Just looked at both players twitters... correct they are no longer there.
Odd.

[smootness]

I'm sure it's probably a little tiring to constantly hear about how great it is that Mississippi State loaned you some equipment...but it doesn't matter. You still just publicly say, thank you, and show appreciation. Because it looks better for you, not for Mississippi State. We're going to get good press on it no matter what, but you just made it about yourself and what a monumental dick you are. Smart move.

This should be a good thing for both of us. But Omar Johnson has decided to ruin it for JSU. They're getting a lot of exposure and they should maximize it because of the win over ULL and the feel good story. This should be good for their recruiting and instead he comes across as a turd.

He may be tired of hearing about how we donated equipment to them, but this is just as good for them IF he would have handled it correctly- or just logically. He can't sit there and tell me that he can't use a bunch of donated equipment even if it's just practice because it's the "wrong color"?

[DudyDawg]

Soooooo plot twist. Those tweets have been deleted.......

[Dawg61]

Odd, why would someone tell those players to remove the tweets? This is so weird. Bus burns down, MSU donates FREE equipment. Say thanks. End of story. How's this complicated?

The 17ing coach probably made them take it down.

that would be the most plausible explanation. just classless. unreal.

Cleats look like they are neutral colors to me as in white and black.

[M.Fillmore]

Frankly I don't get why people label a "thank you" as a classy thing to do.
Saying thank you is basic human decency.

It's classy compared to "couldn't use it. Wrong color."

We'll, it's almost time for JSU to pack our shit up and go home......

Saying thank you isn't necessarily 'classy'. But not saying it is absolutely classless.
