Baseball coach could be announced as early as tomorrow.
How sad.
Only time will tell, but if this doesn't work out we will be set back ten years at a time where we could have put a lot of distance between us and ole miss. Makes me very nervous
Now Bonnor can report it.
This is either going to be a great thing or the worst possible decision, no middle ground. If we don't have a phenomenal baseball hire then this is a terrible decision.
Why is it sad, If this is what Cohen wants i am glad for him. He's done a good job with the baseball team, good luck to him;Quote:

Cohen is a very smart man and has all the credentials to do a great job. He loves Mississippi State University as well. Great hire for State.
What credentials? Coaching baseball is credentials for being AD?
AgreedQuote:

Same old State.
This question may have been asked and covered at an earlier time, but I can't remember seeing it. Is there something medical that may be causing Cohen to want off the field? Seems odd for a guy that competitive and intense to want to quit after winning an SEC championship last year. I'd heard something, but it wasn't earth shattering. I think he could be a great AD, but only time will tell.
I agree with you. Congrats Coach! Now get us a great baseball coach!Quote:

Because Todd got his info from Madison Central AD**Quote:

This. SidSalter and Keenum screwed this and the university as bad as possible. If this doesn't work out the two of them need to be gone as well. Terrible job controlling the situation and press. Please tell me the rumor of LT heading the search isn't true. Lastly, why do I feel like Cohen is LT part III.Quote:

LT part III? Does this mean we get to pee in the floor again at DWS??????
I am with Todd. WTF are we doing? They might as well hire me as the next Baseball Coach. I have as much experience doing that as Cohen has running a hundred million dollar athletic department. SMHQuote:

I don't know how you could ask for much more. Who the hell knows what the future holds with him, but I can promise you if he fails it won't be for a lack of effort. Baseball on the other hand scares me, but I like the move with Cohen. It fits.Quote:

Unfreakingbelievable!! Wow! Ummm... we suck, why should I be shocked?!?
At the moment I'm not very enthusiastic about Cohen to AD or about Cannizaro being named head coach, but we will just have to wait and see how it turns out. On the bright side, Cohen is a no BS kind of guy, and we need that right now.
I think your talk of ass kicking is way off base, can't and shouldn't happen in the environment he is walking into. I foresee very little change in the AD. If he try's to kick ass he going to be in very big trouble very quickly.Quote:
