Wonder how CDM will like working for Cohen? Gonna be a huge difference from Loafers.
Hopefully they can keep Weatherbee as associate AD of marketing or whatever.
Let the intense bastard focus on hiring/firing and raising funds
Boner just got a bonner.
Cohens hepped hire *******Quote:

Cohens hepped hire Mullenes. Should be fine.Quote:

You have to listen, kiss babies, & shake hands.
Not yet sure how John will handle that. If he's good there, then he could be an elite AD. The major plus of Cohen being the AD is that he'll not accept losing & he'll demand instant respect from all other ADs
The trajectory of both of those programs is jn great shape. No AD in their right mind would ruffle feathers jn that hen house. Let them keep doing what they're doing. If it changes, then shake things up.Quote:

Also, it doesn't make a lot of sense to name someone interim AD for a week just to name another guy AD who's already in the damn building.
To add, I'd be surprised if Corbin is the new baseball coach because I think Cohen ego is to the point where he couldn't handle hiring a baseball coach for significantly more money that what he made as baseball coach.
I'd expect Andy Canniazoro or another head coach from across the country that would be getting a good raise with what Cohen made as baseball coach.
Just my humble opinion
The one thing we would get with Cohen is a state first guy. He'll do what he thinks is best for State at all times and I don't think he'd let his ego get in the way.Quote:

No clue, but I doubt it really impacts their day to day much.Quote:

Howland doesn't have a boss before during or after the new AD is hiredQuote:

Why does Cohen want to be AD? Seems odd to meQuote:

I don't really get it, to be honest. I'm just not sure what makes Cohen a better pick than someone who actually has experience in all the things an AD does. Being an AD uses virtually none of the same traits that being a baseball coach does. Maybe he has those, but it seems like a pretty big risk. Especially because it potentially leaves you worse off with your baseball coach as well.
We are probably the first school to ever have an interim AD that is more qualified than the AD we hired. Awesome job MSU GOB network.
It doesn't make sense to you because you have a functioning brain. You're right that it's a huge risk and it's likely to blow up in our face.Quote:

Keenum looks like a clown show for his remarks. Mother of god. Embarrassing.
That's not much better than settling. Unless we land Corbin which I think is a pipe dream we're going to downgrade at baseball coach no matter what.Quote:

No, Keenum pretty much looks like a clown no matter what if Cohen ends up being the final pick. His fence straddling of the state flag issue for political points, handling of this AD situation, and alleged chewing out of Mullen after the Will Redmond scandal have all severely lowered my opinion of him. He can GTFO and go ahead and run for governor or Congress as far as I'm concerned.Quote:

This. All. Day. !!!!Quote:

What about his alleged job searching before that?Quote:
