3 games in and the locker room is already about to be a circus. I guess I'll have to start watching MLB again
different but I'm sure there's a lot of truth in it. He's definitely not a player's coach.
Be a braves' fan... Just stick with the minor leagues this year**Quote:

I was a huge braves fan growing up. I hardly ever missed a game when they used to come on TBS. Andruw and chipper were my boys. I just quit keeping up with them as much over the last 5 or 6 years.Quote:

Only 3 games in and you'll see a few guys not taking the field over the next few games... We're not off to a good start for sure. Worries me because I think this team has a great make up, but if they can't form team chemistry, it won't matter.Quote:

When your team gives you a powerpoint presentation on why facial hair would be a good idea- you are on the verge of losing them every yearQuote:

Why do we always hear these rumors about Cohen and team chemistry? There has to be some truth to it because every year since he's been here there have been whispers about feelings getting hurt and whatnot. If that's the truth and Cohen can't get the team together then he needs to step down. Cohen could be trying too hard and thus getting frustrated. If that's so then it's just not going to work out for him, and I hate that. But in the end, MSU is a premier baseball program, and we shouldn't have to be suffering through this garbage. I'm getting painfully impatient, and I know I'm not the only one.
Damnit.
I'm sure Scott will get this fixed**
That thought makes me even more worried.Quote:

Good riddance get the **** out John. Let's get someone who won't WASTE the talent we have
Cohen was trying to add bigger talent to save his job. Make no mistake- his job is on the line this year and he knows itQuote:

I understand his motives. But how the heck are you supposed to have a healthy locker room when you've stabbed your best players in the back?Quote:

So you're saying pulling Hudson's, Rooker's and Houston's scholarships is a good idea? If he's trying to save his job, pissing off his best players and upper classmen isn't the best way to go about doing that.Quote:

I'm sick of coenz. ...I'm over this shit. ....he's lost the ability to inspire his youngsters and only a dumbass wouldn't see the obvious. .....offer Reynolds a redshirt? Let's offer coenz a recruiting job. ..
I think you are full of shit.Quote:

Yea he told Gentry the same thing and Gentry said to hell with that I quit. Can't say I blame him since it was his senior yearQuote:

That will create a lack of chemistry as it creates too much competition and animosity in the clubhouse. If the coach chooses his starters and everyone knows their role, they respect him and can get comfortable in the lineup. No one knows if they are playing when they show up everyday, or where the will be playing or batting in the lineup. He just over thinks everything way too much!
His name is Dan McDonnell. He graduated from the Citadel. He was an asst. at umiss for a few years. I have no idea if he is a bear fan though. I just really like Louisville's style of play and would love to see that at the Dude on a regular basisQuote:

If Cohen thinks it's a good idea then he has to do it. Guy knows it's do or die so he's going to have to take risks. It's his team, he makes the decisions not any of usQuote:
