Swinarski changing from 2014 to 2013 put it over the top. Collins, Humphreys, Tatum, Hudson, Sexton....those are all high level guys. And Young is a top JUCO.

Man, we are MState. First we just miss out on a national championship and now we just miss out on a recruiting national championship. Sorry, just had to find the dark cloud in there somewhere. :)
Hot damn! We just won the day.Quote:

Excellent news.
I'm extremely excited for baseball this year. Can't wait for it to begin!
this #2 class was signed mostly in Nov. 2012, long before our run in CWS

Cohen is building something incredible.....did you hear that Scott?? Get off your ass and let's get this man a new stadium. He's doing a hell of a lot more against stiff competition than ole Danny Two Gloves.
By the way, the same way I felt about us needing to get Cohen in here....I feel about us needing to get Hudspeth in here.
I know a lot of guys were yelling to fire Cohen, but you could see the team improving even though it didn't show in the win column. I like to look at past coaching records and Cohen turned Kentucky around and has been a winner where ever he was at. And that's what I would like in our fball coach. A proven winner, HUD. The difference between Cohen and Mullen is you could see the improvement. If we were going 5-7 in football but we were steadily improving that would be different. Fball is going backwards and that's why we need a new coach.
I'd like to have their history. All you can ask for is the opportunity in Omaha.Quote:

Baseball America will release their ranking soon. Good to compare the two. We were 10-15 before Young, Heck and Swinarski entered the mix. I don't pretend to know how CB figured the ranking but we got lots of talent on board. I mean we got some very very talented guys. The only measuring stick is wins and how many go pro and how high they get drafted. I am ecstatic. But wait, the 14 and 15 classes....
We will start getting some commits in the coming weeks.
and Cohen is True Maroon to the core. He took a pay cut to come here, and I don't think money will convince him to leave (unless he's interested in MLB). He doesn't just want to build a program, he wants to build a program in Starkville.
I know that some of the cigar boys don't like him, but I know a couple of them, and they have changed their song a bit since they got back from Nebraska.
Very true- at the end of the day you have to perform on the field. But as long as we keep getting a good balance of MLB talent type players and guys that are going to be good college players for four years to fill roles, we should be fine.Quote:

Winning changes a lot of things. Four years ago there was a lot of division within our program between the fans and the staff and the team. I think the healing started with the SR run in 2011, and then the 2012 SEC Tournament Title showed that it wasn't a fluke. And then last year was a special year.Quote:
