I thought all the talk before some of this new stuff came out recently was that this decision was above Cohen and he wouldn’t be making this decision but now Cohen is keeping this from happening? (Apologize if I’m butchering that and it’s not true. This has been a shit storm to keep up with). I thought this was ultimately going to come down to Keenum and the boosters with the power but now it’s Cohen being big buds with Joe and going to bat for him that’s keeping this from getting done? Again, if I got that wrong, correct me because I’m trying to understand it. I’m not a seasoned vet keeping up with this stuff and knowing how this works.

[Rex54]

Dont forget, Cohen while fairly successful during his tenure was also met with some of the same critiques as Joe during his time as a coach at MSU. He does not have the same regard for the fanbase that you would expect

So he’s subverting the program and too stingy to spend the money, while letting personal relationships dictate his motives, not the good of the organization as a whole?

[DDawg]

The majority of what DDawg is posting makes zero sense.

Will be glad to clarify anything I post

[TrapGame]

Cohen better watch out, because when Joe gets his ass whipped a month from now in a bowl game, it will be Cohen getting all of this fury instead of his boi.

Everybody knows he's not going to magically start being successful all of the sudden. Cohen is literally putting his own ass on the line over something that's going to happen next year either way.

Remember when a 6-6 MSU team beat the tee total shit outta 8-4 Rice in Liberty Bowl. Had a tough season, ended with a great EB win. We thought Rice would give us a game. We blew their doors off. Okay, the exact opposite will happen this time. We will face a mediocre bowl eligible team that will give us a tough close game that they shouldn't b/c of our talent level.

[Rex54]

Will be glad to clarify anything I post

Clarify this: Why the **** does Cohen have any say in the matter? Why isn’t he standing in the hallway while Kennum and the angry people with names on buildings determine next steps?

You're not understanding it's quite simple:

The boosters that got Cohen hired support JoMo so Cohen is doing their biding and refusing to fire JoMo. Also, we don't have the money for the buyout. Also, all the boosters are united against Joe but we don't have the money. Also all the boosters are unite against Joe and we do have the money but Cohen won't do it. Also, Keenum is both for and against Joe and is putting his weight into this. He's also staying out of it. He's a big problem and one of the good guys, is the gist of it. But of course, were still firing Joe and all is well, we're just letting things "play out" for a bit to get the buyout down. Not that that's needed because Rutgers will hire him. That rumor is supported by the fact Joe's for sure going to be here next year and it's all settled. But it's not settled, because many former alumni have been angered when they heard it was settled and are now contacting Cohen, who does and doesn't want to fire Joe but does and doesn't have the money to do so and does and doesn't have to play politics with the booster division which exists unless it doesn't.

Personally I’m wondering if Keenum is allowing this to happen to get rid of Cohen. The only way to do that is to get the Virginia Slims against Cohen.

They are willingly driving the car (Football Program) off the cliff, because the police (Cigar Boys) are hot on their tail after.

Clear as mud.

It must be a total shit show in the athletic department. Cohen getting blown up on Twitter. His phone blowing up. Boosters of varying wealth levels wanting to "have a word" with him. Keenum taking heat and calling him about the situation.

[War Machine Dawg]

Clarify this: Why the **** does Cohen have any say in the matter? Why isn’t he standing in the hallway while Kennum and the angry people with names on buildings determine next steps?

This is an outstanding question. The initial leaks suggested that the Spineless Bastard wouldn't have any influence in Jughead being retained or not. But now he's able to tell everyone to follow Jughead's advice and kick rocks? And Hack seems to imply our SEC welfare check gives him that much power?

Don't feel bad. I am a "seasoned vet" with very good contacts and this is the biggest WTF I've see in our athletic department in over 50 years and numerous WTF moments. A monumental CF even by MState standards.

Cohen and Keenum breaking State records, just as they promised! Damnit guys, we've gotta be more clear next time about which kind of record wed like to break. Understandable miscommunication

Here is my official thoughts on the issue:

I think there has been a good bit of truth to all of this, but I think we lack some pretty big chunks of meaningful information.

I realize that is tough for everyone to accept & digest as we only want to win football games & Joe isn't capable of that. However, I think that's the truth.

We lack information and don't really know what's going on

[NaborhoodDawg]

I really cannot say too much more, but let?s just say there were some agreements that experienced material changes after JoMO gave his Yankee ass presser.

Rose bowl jumped the gun on that tweet. The full story is yet to be revealed, be expecting something within next 1-2 weeks.

That Rosebowl tweeted that and we got the news out that he is staying for the early signing period. Say he?s still the coach now, sign the early guys and then Joe ?leave? for a job back in yankee doodle land.

Realize that whoever you sign in the early signing period can request to be released from their LOI if that were to happen.

[msbulldog]

I said it weeks ago and I'm gonna stand by it.

I don't think we are good for the money. I honestly don't believe our resources are willing to pony up what it takes. We ar clearly missing something here.

There's too much he said this and source said this. Nothing concrete. Just conjecture and supposition. To me, there's no way Cohen allows crap to go down like it has and look like he's getting steamrolled. He's not the Intense Bastard because he gets rolled over. It's because he's got a little ass to him.

This situation seems out of his control. It's not his style for us to be grapevining all this crap with zero concrete evidence to pull from. He's been active on Twitter today too. So something must be going on where he's having to let some things play out.

Agree MetEd, I said it in another thread. Let's let this play out till Mondays PC, the only word we're going by is Rosebowl, who has an unknown source in the AD and Rosebowl has been wrong before, a lot.

[ShotgunDawg]

That Rosebowl tweeted that and we got the news out that he is staying for the early signing period. Say he?s still the coach now, sign the early guys and then Joe ?leave? for a job back in yankee doodle land.

I always get really upset when some foreigner calls my cell phone telling me I won 10 million dollars. I sit there and wonder who in the hell actually falls for these calls and gives Them their credit card information? I mean someone has to or they would not do it. Now I know why those guys call my phone.

[PendingTransaction]

This new development could have merit. But it’s hard to believe that Cohen would meet with Joe and confirm his future without first meeting with Keenum and other decision-makers. I would think Cohen and Keenum would meet and agree on a plan of direction, have this plan blessed or amended by the power brokers, and then convey the plan to Joe. I don’t buy that Cohen (or any AD) would attempt to unilaterally give a controversial coach another year without system-wide support.

Have you seen Cohen’s other job searches? I mean most guys they hire people at McDonald’s would never do half the crap he has done.

He hired Cann.
Gets on the radio and kills our leverage with Schlossnagle and had to go a different direction.
Hired Moorhead without looking at G5 head coaches.
Extended Moorhead after he told our fans to kick rocks.

Even the baseball hires have been a shit show.

Cann was not necessarily a bad hire at the time of the hire (end of fall camp) - you couldve made Henderson interim but then you never get Geatreau to campus - Cann became a “bad” once he went off the tracks

I’ll be honest @ the time of the Moorhead hire I thought it might would turn out well....then I watched us play and my PTSD from the Crxxm years started flaring up again

I’ll put it this way...my 10 year old (soon to be 11) wont watch State - his reasoning 1. We suck on offense 2. We are boring on offense 3. don’t win big games

We live in AL and he is constantly defending State with his buddy’s - it’s got to the point this fall where he just says I know we suck, wait till baseball season

Have you seen Cohen?s other job searches? I mean most guys they hire people at McDonald?s would never do half the crap he has done.

He hired Cann.
Gets on the radio and kills our leverage with Schlossnagle and had to go a different direction.
Hired Moorhead without looking at G5 head coaches.
Extended Moorhead after he told our fans to kick rocks.

Even the baseball hires have been a shit show.

Unfortunately he will have to continue with the sucking comeback as long as Moorhead and company are in charge.

This new development could have merit. But it?s hard to believe that Cohen would meet with Joe and confirm his future without first meeting with Keenum and other decision-makers. I would think Cohen and Keenum would meet and agree on a plan of direction, have this plan blessed or amended by the power brokers, and then convey the plan to Joe. I don?t buy that Cohen (or any AD) would attempt to unilaterally give a controversial coach another year without system-wide support.

yes, no way an AD would have a sit-down with the current FB coach and agree to terms without at least having a plan in place. This plan had to be cleared with the President before any meeting took place...If it is 100% true what RB tweeted then it's hard for me to believe we will do a 180' and fire Joe or buy out his contract...

+1 Good read, your son and I think alike but me with seeing way more misery in Msu football. Yes to we are a Baseball School, your son is smart!

ED posters say history doesn't mean anything and time have changed, they are wrong on history and correct on times, we are in much better shape now days.

Cann was a bad hire because No Nuts Cohen was warmed before the hire about some things. Things that he had done while at LSU, similar to what got him canned at MSU. People from LSU let John know as well as other prominent media members who were in the know. None of which were surprised when the reason for his firing was revealed.

That’s one thing rarely mentioned here. No Nuts seems to disregard any and all warning signs when “he finds his guy”. We saw it with Cann and we are now seeing it with JoVester.

I don't believe anything anyone says until it happens. This is a message board so I'll still read for entertainment and opinions though. I do think there is still a one in a million chance something could happen. This is the time of year between now and bowl time so we'll see. Famous last words is I am the coach of blank, then they are gone.

I'm in agreement about message boards, but rumors are encouraged, I did see Urban at Ole Waverly looking at houses***

Sir, you have tapped a level of gullibility not seen since 900 people followed a nut preacher to South America.

So now after reading 310 post, it occurs to me a very new poster, who claims to be using a burner account claimed to be connected to a very important MSU person. This set off speculation that generated 300+ posts. This seems a lot like those old coming posts. Somebody has already accused DDawg of being a nafoom troll and I'm not sure their wrong. We need The Enforcer! Sorry I wasted my time on this thread. Let's wait to the Monday afternoon PC and get the real facts.

Let me break this down for y?all. When you?re an admin you see the user?s email and IP address. The OP is confirmed bulldog fan who uses real info for his account. I reached out to him about this thread info and he told me what he heard in Starkville. Rumors and info are encouraged on this board. I want info. The OP is passing along something he heard. There is a huge difference in that and someone posting from a clear throwaway email and is going through steps to conceal their IP address to hide their identity. Now there are situations someone might want to share info secretly by doing those very things and that?s fine. But if you?re posting ridiculous rumors, that go against what?s being reported nationally, from a throwaway email accounts and ?secret? ip?s, you might get a break for trolling. There is a difference
