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?

I don't see anything wrong with this. The man is trying to save his job. In case you didn't notice those juniors finished dead last in the league

Why can't we just have 1 drama free program with a little success? Shit, if this is already starting it's going to be a miserable season

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.

What's the difference in this and ZJ? Other than being 11 games too late? I hate it but either way the future is in the Freshman.

edit to say, this about LR not other JR's. Maybe he is RS? Who knows??

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.

I've had enough of him. This is garbage, and anyone paying half attention can see something isn't right. He has no concept of team chemistry, and it sounds like he's doing his damndest to destroy any sign of it.

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 year

Nope, but you are. And you are incredibly uninformed.

If I'm not mistaken, and if it's the same guy that it was the last couple of years (i don't pay attention to Louisville) then he is a big OM guy, right?

My biggest issue with Cohen has been that he doesn't pick a starting lineup and stay with it. I have said it the past two years that screwing around with who plays, who hits where and whatnot just is not goo in baseball. 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 basis

Oh i agree. I was thinking he had more OM ties than that. I think there were rumors that he was interested if OM came open though. Would be behind it if we put out feelers though

McDonnell isn't leaving Louisville. Baseball coach movement is a little different than football.

First call should be to Cliff Godwin at ECU.

He will have his pick of schools. UM, LSU, UF, Miami etc. He loved his time at UM and in Oxford. He is still close friends with their staff. I'll match any bet he is their unofficial coach in waiting.

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 us

Bianco isnt going anywhere anytime soon- so McDonell will do whats best for him. Much like getting Howland- we wont have a problem finding a new coach if we have to go that route
