Everyone that said Schloss was a done deal need to be called out.

Prospective coaching hires are interesting to discuss but it aint a deal til Cohen says it is done. Family happiness is a big deal and rural Mississippi is not for everyone. Especially with kid's attached. Bad press from the media puts us in a negative slight when it comes down to it and til you live in the Magnolia State and see the wealth of good people here it is probably harder for outsiders to just jump in. If they spent more than a day or two here on a fly in and fly out, I think their perspective would change a whole lot but the kid's happiness thing probably sways a lot of thought.

Anyhow, I trust in Cohen to make a strong hire. I know there are many misgivings from some of the LL Bleacher parents here on how Henderson has coached this year but I think his calmness, steadiness and experience has provided what this year's team needed to place us where we are today. So good job by Cohen by having him on staff and whatever JC decides going forward will probably be good for MSU.

GO Dawgs! Let's grab this game today and host a SR!

This exactly. Typically those that know keep their mouth closed and/or only talk to a handful of people they know won't say anything.

It's kind of stupid to want to call out people for sharing what they know (or think they know) on message boards. That's the point of message boards and if you aren't taking it with a grain of salt that's on you. Most people who are truly in the know do not post on message boards, or if they do they don't divulge the info. The folks who rush to message boards to post some info they have are typically getting it second or third hand and their immaturity in wanting to have message board cred for starting a thread with the info is what compels them to share it. The most reliable message board sources are usually the info that comes out in responses to the thread - that person didn't jump up and down to tell everyone, they just shared it when it was brought up.

The most important aspect in all of this....preacher was actually right on his "shloss said no" thread a few days ago!! Talk about the ultimate troll job!!! Congratulations

This^

Whatever the reason it isn't Schloss is Schloss's and Cohen's business. Just as long as nobody banged a student, staff member, or somebody else's wife this weekend then there'a probably no foul.

Hey man, it happens. Keep on sharing what you know, and I think we would all be interested to know what transpired over the weekend. In the case of Schloss being a done deal, there were multiple posters (who seem to be fairly reliable most of the time) saying the same stuff. If it wasn't true, it seems that someone or someones was trying to make sure the info got out there that the hire was a "done deal."

I just dont think its very likely that Schloss would be in Stark with Cohen in Tally along with everybody else in the baseball program.

Sometimes info is floated out to different people to find leaks in the ship.

Inset ric flair walk gif here

Lots of "VCASH" riding on this sure bet. I may be glad I had a problem with reading comprehension and thought It was bet by 1:00 in the afternoon instead of 1:00 the night before, and the window was closed

I'm here. Y'all kick me in the nuts. I don't know schloss personally so I was getting info from multiple sources who were right about Cann being hired and Cohen taking the AD job. They not sure what happened right now either. I do know schloss made some Dick moves on his part. I'm confident Cohen has a great backup plan in place. My sincere apologies. I sucked on this.

Everyone knew we offered Schloss. Outside of TCU people and his family, I'm not sure how anyone would know 100% that he'd take it. They could be be told that it looks good, but that doesn't need mean it's final.

This is always the board excuse. Nobody here knows shit. Including me. I?ve been a member since day 1 so I?m family. We suck at sources. My dubmass told people about Schloss because I was so confident after reading here everyday.
Personally, I?ve always hoped it would be McDonald but Schloss was great too. I?m gonna bet it ends up being Henderson. He took over an impossible situation and led us to a Super Regional. It?s gonna be him. Very underwhelming but all I care about is winning.

No way Schloss was is Starkville this weekend unless he just wanted some Lil Dooey’s. Cohen and the entire athletic dept is in Tallahassee.

Its not gonna be Gary. You can have all my vcash if its Gary

If your source tells you it's a done deal, but the coach hasn't made up his mind.
...then the source is wrong.
