Just read on that other message board that this morning Bo Bounds said Schloss is in Omaha telling a bunch of scouts and baseball insiders that he still wants the MSU job. What do y'all make of that?

Subterfuge within subterfuge. If he's doing it to increase his raise/contract even more then we probably don't want him. From what I have heard from a very reliable source: Cohen met with Schloss and wife and was apparently hesitant to move forward. Who knows? Maybe playing contract/money games?

Everyone says "we ain't got no mall... blah, blah... crootin' ". Meanwhile the malls all over the country are closing because of online retailers. So, does it really matter.

One major reason for this, GROUPIES

He talked to Cannizaro about the perks for being the Bulldog skipper. So, he might as well pretend to be the coach for a weekend to see if Lee will give him a text.

He better borrow a burner phone from Hugh Freeze, tho

I'd say hes still in play along with anyone else who said they werent taking the job. Saban said he wasnt going to Bama multiple times.


What these big coaches say mean about as much as what we post on this site.

He’s not signing a new deal. Would be interesting but I think he’s burnt the bridge with Cohen. Who knows. Never say never I guess.

I have no clue what's going on, but, if Cohen allows his ego to get in the way of hiring the best coach, I'll have a big problem.

When your asking people to uproot their life, sometimes they are indicisive and I don't think you can blame them for that. If our run to Omaha has allowed Schloss to see how special our program is, then great. I don't think we should say 17 him just because

This. I understand that Cohen would be pissed off that Schloss made a public deal of saying he staying at TCU. But it's a lot to ask someone to uproot their life. If he's the best coach available, you go hire him. I'm sure that any damage to their relationship can be repaired. They're grown men.

That's not what I said. He's got his reasons and it has nothing to do with ego. And before someone asks, I don't know what those reasons are. I could guess, but that would just be more BS. I specifically asked someone last week because this rumor was already making the rounds. Could it be a full-blown cover-up? Sure. But I doubt it.

With what we have coming back next yr and maybe Ginn, Schloss could very well walk in Starkville next yr and win a natty. He knows it too. You would have to also think he would bring a couple big time recruits with him.

Something I find odd tho, Schloss was rumored quite heavily to State, Sarloos to Rice. Everyone thought Sarloos was Rice top choice. Then all of a sudden, Sarloos turns Rice down and gets a dang good raise. Then Schloss says he is out of the running yet doesn't sign an extension or anything. Maybe, and just maybe, Cohen told Schloss to shut the 17 up and wait til State is done playing. Maybe that's why Sarloos stayed at TCU. It's not like Sarloos turned down Ark State or a Trmple. Rice is a good program. I'm not sure, just some stuff is odd to me.

I trust Cohen, but please for the love of god don't set us back 10 yrs...

Schloss is FAR better baseball coach than Cohen ever was. If he wants the job, you hire him

Here's the deal on Henderson: there are almost certainly better candidates that we can hire. What he's done this year is remarkable, yet we've already seen what he can do with his own program. That said, nothing should be taken away from the job he's done this year. It is great and we owe him a lot of appreciation for that. And if we somehow win the whole thing, he will deserve a statue. And honestly, at that point, I won't be nearly as upset if he gets the job - not because I would think he would suddenly be a better candidate but because after winning a title, I'll be ok with 4-5 years of mediocrity.

I have been painted as pro-Henderson for the job, but it isn't true. You worded by thoughts exactly. I just really hate for Henderson to be run down here for no reason. How many times have we as fans quit on this team? I quit several. It would've been very easy for Henderson to pack it in when we were 14-15 (2-7), but he didn't. I respect the hell out of that. This team had no business being a 2-seed after our disastrous start, much less with a win under our belts in the CWS. This whole staff and team deserve a major thumbs up, and Henderson (like him or not) is the head of the operation. Outstanding, Henderson, staff, and team. I still want to go another direction though

I'd be so ****ing pissed if we win a natty and then squander all the momentum with 4-5 years of ~35 Ws, 2 or 3 seeds in regionals, and road regional Ls. If/when we win a natty, we should be able to immediately restock the program with better players and pushed for multiple natty runs.

Short of actually winning a natty, I'd prefer multiple CWS trips over a relatively short period of time over 1 CWS finals appearance, but otherwise spend our postseasons losing in regionals and super regionals before and after it. The more often you are in the CWS, the better chance that eventually you'll catch the breaks and win the whole damn thing. If you are only going once every 5 years or so, then you have to put all your eggs in 1 basket and hope guys without CWS experience can pull it off.

Cooterpoot
06-18-2018, 12:29 PM
I want the best coach available for our job. I was hoping for Schloss or McDonnell but knew that wasn't likely. I think the way this has gone, Cohen needs it to end well. We can't have another coach that finishes around 5th-10th and goes to the CWS every so often. That's our past. We need to be looking for more. I don't know who it's going to be but it better work out.

The closer we get to a title, the happier I am as an MSU fan, regardless of who the coach is. That doesn't mean I want GH as our head coach of the future though.

I can cheer on the team, including GH, and want a different coach next year at the same time. That is an option.

I mean, you can't take a natty away, but if in 2021 we are stumbling to 35 Ws and a 2 or 3 seed again after similar seasons in 2019 and 2020, you'll be frustrated too. No one will be sitting there "oh this is fine cause we had 2018! I'm not at all frustrated by our inability to use 2018 to catapult us into the top tier of programs!".

Pretty sure it's not the fact that there isn't actually a mall built in Starkville.

It's more that the town/area likely isn't populated or large enough to support a mall. I would think before all of them started closing like you said, a mall would be one of the first things built in a town that was large enough to support it or that was beginning to grow.

Exactly. You can take every comment by every prospect with the smallest grain of salt there is. Everyone is available until we pull the trigger on someone. At least, that is how I look at it. Let's just win the game today and worry about all this two weeks from now.

We win today, someone has to beat us twice to get to the finals. Need to get the win today, rest our staff, and get the analytics ready for small to pitch again.

No one is saying that won't celebrate the shit out of a natty. But I want to build a program regularly winning or at least putting itself in position to win natties, not a flash in the pan that wins one as a 2 seed that caught fire at the right time, but then goes along never really becoming a regular contender. In no way should we sacrifice the potential to build a dominant program because we "owe" it to Henderson to let him run the ship after our 2018.

You misunderstand what a natty would do for MSU. If we finally got that done, support for the program would absolutely explode. That would help recruiting as much as any coach's sales tactic, half the time, that IS their sales tactic here

Why is it assumed Hendu would have the same long-term success here as he had at UK where nobody cares about baseball and it?s hard to recruit?

If State wins it all this year, would a new coach be able to use that as effectively in recruiting as the coach who actually won it?

Would the players coming back really buy in for a new coach if the one who led them to a natty gets let go?

If we win the title and then fire Hendu, it would damage our reputation in the baseball world far more than keeping him around and not making it back to Omaha for the next two or three years. And who?s to say he wouldn?t?

If I’m wrong, then my source sucks. Won’t be the first or last time. But I believe him. He could’ve changed his tune and didn’t.

Steve said we talked with Schlossnagle very recently after he reached out through a third party. Sounds like it was in the past few days. That much is known, so if it's a dead deal, that's news to Steve.

And I gave no idea who Cohen is or isnt talking to at this point. I only know at one time Schlossnagle was the main guy.

Well, we’ll see how it goes. I don’t doubt he contacted us if Steve says so. But I still believe there’s a sticking point. I mean, we all heard rumors. Maybe they were more than rumors. I don’t know. I’m just sticking with what my guy says.

Well if we don’t win tonight. We will find out soon enough. To me, Oregon State is the best team in this tournament and it’s not close. Tonight’s game is a must win. We won’t beat OSU on Wednesday.

I just wanna see an actual quote from Schloss that publicly was made, by him, turning us down. Not Kendall freaking tweeting what he's heard. Maybe I'm out of the loop on this so someone please post a source that verifies this. Otherwise, smokescreen...

As you are saying or even along those lines even if he said no that doesn't mean a lot until our search is actually over. Saban said no several times.

If Schlossnagle is indeed telling people that he still wants our job it makes me wonder what his angle is. More money, possibly given an ultimatum by TCU where if he didn't commit they would fire him and he couldn't take that chance with some loose ends on our end of the table, maybe we're not interested and he is. There could be a number of things.

It will be interesting to see how this all plays out. Hopefully a few days after a National Championship parade.

His resume speaks for itself. I could care less what Cohen thought about him when they met. That would be Cohen's ego getting in the way or overthinking it.

Schloss is FAR better baseball coach than Cohen ever was. If he wants the job, you hire him

Ha. Ain?t no doubt abt that bro. If Schloss wants the job you say ?ok, how much do I make the check out for??

Here is one absolute fact that I have concluded.. nobody and I mean nobody on this board or otherwise has a single clue about anything or anybody involved with this search. Me included. Both things I thought I knew I heard from ppl I though knew but they didn?t know. Ya know? Lol. Cohen is only one who knows squat.

I have been painted as pro-Henderson for the job, but it isn't true. You worded by thoughts exactly. I just really hate for Henderson to be run down here for no reason. How many times have we as fans quit on this team? I quit several. It would've been very easy for Henderson to pack it in when we were 14-15 (2-7), but he didn't. I respect the hell out of that. This team had no business being a 2-seed after our disastrous start, much less with a win under our belts in the CWS. This whole staff and team deserve a major thumbs up, and Henderson (like him or not) is the head of the operation. Outstanding, Henderson, staff, and team. I still want to go another direction though

This is a good post

The closer we get to a title, the happier I am as an MSU fan, regardless of who the coach is. That doesn't mean I want GH as our head coach of the future though.

I can cheer on the team, including GH, and want a different coach next year at the same time. That is an option.

Agree completely

Cohen has done a good job. Maybe they talked and he said something that made Cohen think he would not succeed here. I am happy with the Moorhead hire and am going to trust Cohen on this also.

I?m optimistic about the Moorhead hire but we haven?t seen him coach a game yet. I?m gonna withhold judgement until we see him coach a little.

You won’t find it.. all you will find is Kendall’s tweet and some message board rumors abt something Schloss said at an alumni function. What do ppl think he’s gonna say at an alumni event?

He confirmed that he pulled his name to the Star-Telegraph but declined to comment. So you won?t find a direct quote just a confirmation from him to the news report

Schloss ain?t happening. Y?all can move on to McDonnell now.

Let's do it. "Just read on that other message board that this morning Bo Bounds said *McDonnell* is in Omaha telling a bunch of scouts and baseball insiders that he still wants the MSU job. What do y'all make of that?" **

I like it!!!! Only problem is, I just talked to my BFF, who is John Cohens BFF. He assured me that Corbin is begging for the job. Says there is just too much going on in Nashville for him and his wife. He’s ready for a change! *****

If we end up with Schlossnagle (I refuse to get my hopes up) then we need to worry about the CIA coming after the IB (to hire him for covert operations).
